I realize this is not a Savage gun, but a lot of you have Remington 700 experiences to share as well. I'm looking at installing a short action (7mm-08) barrel on a long action (.30-06) Remington 700. Same barrel contour. What will I need to do in terms of the magazine well to accommodate the shorter cartridge, assuming this is do-able otherwise? I realize removing a 700 barrel makes removing a Savage barrel look like a picnic.
Thanks,
