    Looking for a serial number for parts


    I'm looking for a serial number for a 111 long action with blind mag, for 300 why mag rifle. I made my 300 ultra a version of 300 weatherby and it wont feed right with that magazine. I need to get a magazine box and spring and follower for a weatherby

    Three problems here...

    1. Savage has never offered any of their rifles chambered for the Weatherby cases, so there is no specific Weatherby Mag. magazine box or follower.
    2. Savage only offered the Ultra Mag's for five years (2001-2005) making those actions with the longer magazine ports (and associated parts) extremely rare.
    3. Being that your rifle started life as an Ultra Mag. I know that makes it a staggered-feed action and Savage no longer offers any parts for that older magazine system as it has been out of production for 11+ years now.

    Your first option would be to try and find a factory staggered-feed magazine box and follower for the 7mm STW, but those are going to be almost impossible to find as Savage only offered rifles chambered for the STW for two years (2001 & 2002).

    Your second option would be to call Jeff down at CDi Precision in Florida to see if he might have a detachable box magazine (DBM) kit that would work for the .300 Weatherby. You would need to purchase the kit and send your blind mag stock to Jeff to have him inlet it to accept the new DBM bottom metal.

    Ok the better idea sounds like calling cdi and see what can be done.
