PTG Winchester M70 DBM w/ Accuracy International AICS Mag

[The Guide]

Does anyone have any experience with one of these? If so how much fitting did you have to do? Will if fit any long action M70?

Winchester Model 70 (LA) or FN Police SPR (LA) Stealth Detachable Mag Bottom Metal - Pacific Tool and Gauge

I am looking for a way to be able to run my full length 300 WM rounds in my rifle without having to use it as a single shot as I still plan on using it as my primary carry rifle.

Thanks,

Jay

What year was the rifle made in? 08 and after require you to open the throat of the magazine well wider to actually get the magazine in.

Also, in 08, it became an intermediate length action for WSM calibers, so a short action caliber would have a little more room and the WSM's would work well, but standard LA calibers won't work well for a magazine box conversion.

If you have one of the FN made post 08, then get a CDI, if it's a push feed model 70, the PTG is a good choice. You may still have to widen the throat for the magazine.

It was originally a M70 Black Shadow in 300 WM when purchased new in 2002. The rifle is now in a H-S Precision stock, has a Benchmark barrel, and a Timney trigger. The only thing stock is the action and bolt. From your description it sounds like this should work and if not then a little milling will be needed to fit the mag properly.
