Rebarrel to 300 PRC?

Got a great deal on a left hand Winchester 70 in 270 Weatherby. I knew from the get go it would most likely be a donor for something else. That something else could be a 300 PRC.
Any issues with rebarreling (or reboring) to 300 PRC? I know the case is designed from the 375 Ruger so its is fatter. Would the rifle still hold three down? Any potential issues with feeding?


My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.

Why not go 300 WBY. Same or better ballistics as the 300 PRC and you have no issues with your magazine holding 3 down? I know it's not the new shiny thing but there ain't no flies on the 300 WBY.

sounds fun -- though, tbh, there's no flies on the 300 winmag - it should still hold 3 down, but might need some tweaking, if it has the "hump" spring
