If you like a composite stock and .375 H&H. .
.458win,

I was wondering if the factory M70 classic RUM box would work with the 375 Ruger?
I presume it may be wider than a .338win factory box?

regarding the new Echols replacement follower in the photo,
looks its made left stack, like Dakota starting doing yrs go for its RH rifles.

I have never tried switching the stamped magazine boxes between M-70's and Ruger's but the Ruger boxes that come with the 375 and 416 Rugers are a pretty close fit for the cartridges. Althought I am pretty sure D'Arcy might not agree.


Anyone who claims the 30-06 is ineffective has either not tried one, or is unwittingly commenting on their own marksmanship

Maybe someone has a factory M70 RUM and some 375 Ruger rounds/brass
that they can use to see what the box will hold - and how it feeds.... Smiler
