I want to put a dropped magazine like this one on my Winchester M-70 .375 H&H. Anybody know of anyone who makes one??? This is Steve Robinson's rifle. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ J.

How much magazine capacity are you looking for? That looks like about 6 or 7 down. Mike Legistine actu quod scripsi? Never under estimate the internet community's ability to reply to your post with their personal rant about their tangentially related, single occurrence issue. What I have learned on AR, since 2001: 1. The proper answer to: Where is the best place in town to get a steak dinner? is…You should go to Mel's Diner and get the fried chicken. 2. Big game animals can tell the difference between .015 of an inch in diameter, 15 grains of bullet weight, and 150 fps. 3. There is a difference in the performance of two identical projectiles launched at the same velocity if they came from different cartridges. 4. While a double rifle is the perfect DGR, every 375HH bolt gun needs to be modified to carry at least 5 down. 5. While a floor plate and detachable box magazine both use a mechanical latch, only the floor plate latch is reliable. Disregard the fact that every modern military rifle uses a detachable box magazine. 6. The Remington 700 is unreliable regardless of the fact it is the basis of the USMC M40 sniper rifle for 40+ years with no changes to the receiver or extractor and is the choice of more military and law enforcement sniper units than any other rifle. 7. PF actions are not suitable for a DGR and it is irrelevant that the M1, M14, M16, & AK47 which were designed for hunting men that can shoot back are all PF actions. 8. 95 deg F in Africa is different than 95 deg F in TX or CA and that is why you must worry about ammunition temperature in Africa (even though most safaris take place in winter) but not in TX or in CA. 9. The size of a ding in a gun's finish doesn't matter, what matters is whether it’s a safe ding or not. 10. 1 in a row is a trend, 2 in a row is statistically significant, and 3 in a row is an irrefutable fact. 11. Never buy a WSM or RCM cartridge for a safari rifle or your go to rifle in the USA because if they lose your ammo you can't find replacement ammo but don't worry 280 Rem, 338-06, 35 Whelen, and all Weatherby cartridges abound in Africa and back country stores. 12. A well hit animal can run 75 yds. in the open and suddenly drop with no initial blood trail, but the one I shot from 200 yds. away that ran 10 yds. and disappeared into a thicket and was not found was lost because the bullet penciled thru. I am 100% certain of this even though I have no physical evidence. 13.

That is an unusual design, but looks cool. I say it would be better to do bottom metal with a removable clip - that way you can drop a low profile one in that blends with the lines of the rifle, or if you're in a Tarzan movie and need to shoot a bunch of lions and restless natives, you can drop the big daddy in and shoot away.

Charles, Quit being practical. J. Lane, I know nothing of a 500 Jeffrey but I gotta belive that holds well more than three down. If you only want to hold five down and can settle for 4 down you can probably accomplish that with a coffin floor plate and I believe Duane is contemplating making those.

Guys, It holds 3 in the mag and the reason we didn't go for a removeable mag is that there's always the chance it'll fall out at an inconvenient moment..... like when something big n ugly is trying to stamp on you. The floorplate is hinged and held closed by an allen screw and lock washer and I carry a cut down allen screw in my trapdoor in the stock. The tape is a bit of bush gunsmithing to hold two small pieces of neoprene in appropriate places to stop the rifle biting me when I shoot it. | |||

Guys, For all the other advice...I have taken this specific .375 H&H on every trip i have taken to Africa. I shoots well, I have killed a lot stuff with it, and NOW it has sentimental value. A .375 H&H is a very practical rifle as my second rifle for dangerous game hunts. I would not trade it for a CZ and all the tea in China!!! The only thing that would make it a better rifle for me is if it held 5 in the magazine. I think Steves rifle looks very appealing and I could see a "dropped magazine" like this on my .375 Not looking to change rifles...looking for help with this project!!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ J.

Mike 3 directly on top of each other and not staggered. Rough dimensions with a tape measure rather than calipers are from bottom of stock to bottom of extended mag (exterior) = 13/16 ths. From bottom of depressed floorplate to bottom of the bolt = 2 inches. The mag was made by a friend of mine in Wales without him ever having the rifle in his hands to try anything. We did it all by my sending him a loooong series of very complicated measurements and when it arrived, it just dropped in with a pretty much perfect wood to metal fit...... and it feeds absolutely perfectly.

It's a Weatherby action that started life as a 416 Wea and got remade to a .500 Jeffery by Sabi Rifles in Nelspruit RSA when I got fed up with the original calibre not stopping animals at ultra close range. Must have bought it new in about the late 80s and had it rebuilt in about 2000. The older it gets and the more fucked up it looks, the better it performs...... or maybe that could be said of me as well as the rifle. | |||

Steve, what was the failure mode of the 416? I'm quite curious, have heard various folks say various things about both the velocity and the bullet construction. I've had good luck with various 50s and 45s in the past and was considering a 41 but your dissatisfaction is disturbing to me. Can you expand?

Joe, It wasn't really a failure. Just that the bullet would either not stop the animal or would put him down but then he'd get up again and again..... basically I think it was mostly a bullet speed problem. I had about 3 or 4 buff in about a 10 or 12 day period where the buggers just wouldn't stay down so decided enough was enough and had the rifle rebuilt into a .500 soon thereafter. The .500 puts 'em down an absolute treat and once down, they stay down. I had the .500 built to my own specification and made to measure and that also makes an immense difference. The rifle is short as hell with a 19 inch barrel and is built to stop charges at short range and nothing else. - I reckon I got the design just right for what I wanted. If I were looking for a rifle for hunting rather than hunting professionally, I'd go for a 416 or a 458. If I could afford it, I'd go for a made to measure rifle from someone like Sabi Rifles who made both of my rifles as it makes an immense difference to fit....... esp for me because as Hook will tell you, I'm far from a 'standard size'. I'm short, broad and long armed. If you're more like a standard size you can get away with a factory rifle and frankly you don't need to spend a fortune to get a straight shooter. | |||

Thanks for the reply, Steve. Sounds like a lack of momentum rather than energy or bullet failure. I've always liked bullet weight rather than velocity but was curious whether the increased velocity of the Weatherby 416 would cause problems with bullets designed for less. My experience with various 45s and 50s has been good so far but has been limited to 5K fpme and animals less than 600 lbs, not really any test.

I bet you could put a floor plate latch on that dropped mag floor plate similar the ones on Kimbers & Whitworths with the spring loaded lever in the fore of the trigger guard.

I wouldn't recommend it buddy. Any sprung catch can come undone at a bad moment. I'd either go for a fixed floorplate or one like mione which is hinged and held shut with an allen screw etc. FWIW, The original Weatherby floorplate with a sprung release catch is famous for dropping the rounds when the rifle is fired. It happened to both me and Peter (the guy who made my extended mag) a few times. In the end, I taped my original one shut until his version arrived in the post. | |||

Westley Richards made these in .425 for years and years. They'd probably make one even now - for the right price. Here are a few photos of a used .425 that's for sale right now on the WR website: From what I can tell, it appears that the floorplate release catch is an elongated, probably spring loaded, button.

A local gunsmith built an exaggerated drop floorplate for a customer based on a Ruger RSM 458 Lott. I believe it was to hold four extra cartridges. Last I heard it was difficult to get reliable feeding with that many shells. Getting the correct spring pressure to handle a full magazine was difficult. The smith told me "never again". | |||

It's interesting to see a 425 built on an FN commercial action. I didn't know WR did that. No one likes the FN commercial action more than I, but I wonder if the original buyer realized that Sears was selling bargin priced rifles built on the exact same action. The dropped mag looks like a Namibian made 404 I saw in Zimbabwe. IIRC the extended box on that 404 was made by cutting off the trigger guard, the front tang and then cutting the top of the box off military box, leaving only about .75" of depth in the box. This "lower skirt" was then welded to the bottom of another military box. The military floor-plate fit on the box. It looks like the same thing was done on the WR in the photo, except that they used an FN bottom metal and added a transition from the front of the box to the actual bottom metal. The floor plate and latch/plunger look like standard FN commercial pieces. Jason "You're not hard-core, unless you live hard-core." _______________________ Hunting in Africa is an adventure.
