Short Action 3.00" mag

Who makes a short action with a magazine box [magazine] of 3.00 or longer. Controlled feed, [.470 dia.] for a future blaster. I was thinking Ruger use to make one for the .284.

Model 70 if you remove the magzine spacer.

I found a video on comparing the 308 to a WSM. Looks like if you remove the spacer, you will also need to shorten the ejector. Nice to know there is an fordable solution, Thanks, setters5

Montana rifle company short/intermediate action, and they will sell you an action in CM or ss, rh or lh. I believe footprint is the same as a short action model 70. However, they are a little different than a model 70, with Mauser style breaching and a somewhat hybrid bolt release.

FISH!!

Heed the words of Winston Smith in Orwell's 1984:

"Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right."
