What recognizable cartridges will fit the Montana Professional Hunter (PH) action without significant gunsmithing ?

The magazine box is listed as 4.025 inches.

The three bolt faces offered are 0.534", 0.604", and the 0.648".

For example, will the 585 Nyati ?

To be on the safe side, I would ask them first and work up from there. I have two coming, however. One will be another 505 Gibbs in the stable and the other will be 550 Gibbs hammer to compliment the 550 Magnum.


"Experience" is the only class you take where the exam comes before the lesson.

Jeffe, Jeffe, We have to do the 700 DA. Come on man, go big or go home. Big Grin
I have 6 that I've been waiting for since the very early going. One will certainly be the 700 DA.

To answer the Hammer's question any large 3-3.6" case with a base diameter of .660 or less (you could really get by with a .680 dia base but some will say no way) So just about any case under the BMG.

I guess you could also do a 22 hornet if you really wanted to. fishing

Jeffe,

Please forgive me for being lazy and not using my search function...

But what exactly is the 700DA?

Thanks

Matt V.
