In changing a Winchester 70 Safari Express in 416 Rem Mag to 458 Lott by re-barrelling, is the new barrel all it would likely take, or would any magazine, follower, or feeding changes need to be made?

Just a barrel. It should even feed well.


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

Send it to pacnor, have them finish up the feeding. MIGHT need a new magbox (get the rum one) as most of the m70 feeding is in the box
