[QUOTE="Hugnot, post: 2352800, member: 115658"] I was shocked upon viewing the McGowen photo !!!! I have many McGowen barrels & no problems - outstanding accuracy! The owner of the McGowen barrel with the photo needs to address his angst with McGowen. My McGowen barrels sparkle with perfection - no horrible tool marks. Please allow me to respectfully submit a suggestion - go with a .280 AI, same bolt face, same magazine. Enlargement of bolt face & extractor modification would not be needed. The belted magnums in Ruger MKII's use a wider magazine box & ammo feeding from box is controlled by the top of the magazine. A new replacement magnum magazine box & follower would be required. Ballistics of both .280AI & 7 Rem Mag are real close. .280 AI brass is available. .280 AI brass may be made from .270Win with fire forming - some fussing but makes brass available. Should I get my own bore scope? [/QUOTE]
