At the time of this thread, there was a wonderful 404J built on a M70 by Winsron Elrod. I handled the rifle at Cabela's ain Scarborough. Nyrifleman (Doug) on here was looking at it as well.That was why I asked about the cartridge.

I did not buy it,and far as I know neither did Doug....I go back and forth on anything over 375.... confused
Not really something I have any need for; but I do think the 404 is a neat cartridge!


I never did buy that rifle Bob. I have a .375 H&H on a Dakota 76, and if I decide to build another big bore I'll likely go JBs way of thinking and do a .416 Rem M-70 in a McMillan.

I have been very tempted from time to time though.

I need to be REAL careful when I read threads like this one.... smile
