kiwiwildcatThinking about building a 7mm WSM on a Remington 700 action...
Hey, need some advice here.
1st question - worth the effort?
I owned a Boone & Crockett M700 short action 300WSM a number of years back, but was less than impressed. Nothing against the M700, just the feeding issues etc.
I got to thinking the other day. If one was to:
1). Fit a Sako Style Extractor
2). Install a Wyatts extended mag box
How would this conversion do (along with open up bolt face and mag rails.
Or go for something like a Montana controlled feed which they do for short mags.
I like the M700, heaps of after market parts, plus an accurate action. Looking at building something light weight.
All thoughts appreciated.
Michael.
