I have a line in a cheap 650 Montana 1999 SS new in box Action with bottom metal.


I would like to start putting pieces away for 358 STA. Problem it has a 30/06 bolt face.

Can the bolt face be opened up with no concern to the magnum bolt face?

If the juice is not worth the squeeze, give me your contact in PM of you are interested in the action. I will pass along seller info.

Is the magazine the correct length? IIRC the .358 STA is a full length Mangum case.

Magazine and action are long enough for 3.6 COAL. The 358 STA is a 2.85 inch, nominally, case.

Yes opening up bolt faces is de rigeur and routine, and anyone can do it. I mean anyone who can install the barrel, can also do that.
