Re-do of a Hawkeye
Gents,

Can a left-handed Ruger Hawkeye in 300 Win. be done in 458 Win or 404 Jeff?

Does the magazine box have to be re-worked?

Thanks,

Roger QSL

458 would work, 404 Jeffery is not a go.

For the change to a 458 Win Mag, just get it rebarreled, BUT think about replacing the stock before you test fire. The first 375 Ruger's have split the Original pattern stocks.
Think of a custom McMillian.
