Question?
I have a 114 centerfeed with a DBM, originally in a 30-06. I am considering swapping this to a magnum caliber.
Is this LA bottom metal(270/30-06) the same size as one for a mag caliber(7mag/300wm), or is the entire bottom metal different(longer)? I know i would need a new magnum magazine, but was wanted to make sure that I didnt need the entire bottom metal.
What say you?
Yep, just switch the box. The only difference is the feed lips.
A standard box won't let magnum brass up high enough for the bolt to catch. A magnum box won't keep 30-06 brass in the box.
.......and a magnum bolt head.
uj
The mag box doesn't care what bolt head you use. ;D
I know I need the bolthead.
I thought all Id need for the DBM was the mag but wanted to be sure.
Thanks guys. Im off to the classified section...LOL
Mike, what are you building?
They work really really well on WSM's. :)
I feed my 300 Win Mag from my 30-06 CF magizine. Bend the lips. It is easy
