[QUOTE="nksmfamjp, post: 2395171, member: 1951"] I’m a little less certain about pre-64, but… In general, Win 70 has 1 action size..(yes, I know they made the modern short action crf WSM actions, but….) so, a short action caliber or med action are a long action with a longer bolt stop timed to a mag box with spacer and shorter follower. These parts are somewhat available. If it were me, before monkeying around with all that, I would put some 7mm-08 in your rifle and see if it feeds. I’ll bet it does. Then just rebarrel and go. You will be able to run longer rounds! Some people find that good. [/QUOTE]
