Could you explain the specific good points of the Montana action? What exactly are the best points from both worlds?


DD: Not JB but from what I know of it,and IIRC the Montana has a Mauser 98-type breach vs the M70,so would handle escaping gas somewhat better.There may be other differences I'm not aware of.




The 280 Remington is overbore.

The 7 Rem Mag is over bore.
