JesseJamesM-70 mag box question
I have a M-70 in 338 WM. I have been looking all over the internet, but cannot find a source for a 3.6" magazine box. I know you can take the spacer out of the factory one, but I just want to buy a replacement and follower.
I have also seen the wyatt magazine box that will let you go to 3.8". I don't want to go that route because the reciever needs to be machined, and if I understand correctly I will need a new one piece bottom metal as well since the middle bolt won't be used. Thank you, Travis.

OngweNumrich had the last ones I bought.
The middle screw can be used with either box.

DavidReedAssuming it is a post '64 M70, look at the box Duane Weibe offers.
