I'm a just a working stiff that happens to have a shop with 2 lathes and 2 milling units. I also have good buddy that is a excellent metal worker. We have put together about 25 rifles in the past 5 years. They have all been 25-06, 7mm mauser, 308, 22-250, ect. The largest thing we have put together is a 375 H&H on a winchester 7mm mag.

I have 2 Win model 70 actions (7mm, 300) and I want to do the imposible. I want to do a 416 Rigby on one, and a Jeffery or 500 AHR for feeding issues on the other. What type of metal work mod's would I have to do. I know that the 70' is long enough, because I've have seen to built that way. I just never had time to pick them apart.

I know there are some excellent smith's out on this board and just wanted to pick their brain. I've seen some of Charlie Sisks work and it is GGGREAT!!, but my buddy and I get the satsifaction out of doing and learning. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/help.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/help.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/help.gif" alt="" />
