Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Long Range Hunting 26 Nosler

Here is a photo of a M-70 .300 RUM turned into a .404J. If you study the box mag photo carefully, you'll see "window cuts" in the sheet metal box mag. That's one way to functionally widen the mag box, giving fat rounds more room under the action rails. The follower may need to be altered, although it's reported that wide cases may work with a std mag follower.

This action, of course, is mag length. I'm thinking this same box mag treatment could alter a std length magnum action to work with the 26 Nosler case.

I'm not sure about the Kimber.
