I know this is a single shot rifle, however, is the bottom of the receiver solid or is there a mag well cut out and could it be converted to a repeater with a stock change and associated hardware?

It's a solid bottom single shot, and it is the strongest version made for the .338L. Why would you want to make it a repeater?? Repeater versions are available.
I was going to address in the OP but then figured I’d keep it short to begin with.Quote:

Figured I’d try the 112 Target and if the single shot thing didn’t work out, I might have the option of converting it over to a repeater.
The other model, the long range hunter, comes with the accustock. Have a 223 in one of those too and I’m not crazy about it either.
Anyway, probably end up going with the 112 Target model, just considering all my options before I “pull the trigger”. :cool:
BTW, thanks for the intel.
I have a 112 and love it. As SS said, it has to be a very strong action since the bottom is solid. That's one reason I bought it. The other reasons are the value vs. other models, it's very heavy due to the laminate stock and the very large barrel profile. That combined with the brake make it very easy to shoot. Mine has proven to be very accurate so far with what few rounds I've put through it.
Thanks for the report.Quote:
