375 rebarrel to 300 win mag problem?
would there be any problem converting a 375 to 300 win mag such as feeding? It would be a push feed action.

No problem from a technical perspective, but you are going in the wrong direction from a bullet diameter one. ".30 calibers are good pest guns" Elmer said. Maybe; I loaned out my Elmer book to a friend and he never returned it.

thanks for the replies I am trying to find my friend a left hand bolt rifle. found one in 375 but has had the barrel cut to 20", was wondering if he would have problems if he rebarreled to 300 win mag as he already shoots one in a BAR, afraid he will have problem with recoil in the 375. Thanks again

No problem at all. Actually better than going the other way around esp. if you hand load -. the extra magazine length allows for longer COAL, which with all the monometal bullets out there is a plus.
