I questioned whether it was not going to feed or eject like the 375HH with flawless dependabilty. I base that on the short mag designs I have seen up to now. Their feeding really sucks from those I have seen, and the guys I know who bought them. Do a search on this very site. It's not a secret.
Jim, again you're making a lot of assumptions based on... well, I'm not sure what!

Say's who?
Like I said, I've had TWO M70 375's both of which needed tweaking to feed properly. Many M70's will run the long H&H cartridges right into the extractor cutout, hanging up, unless tuned. Many think the M70 geometry isn't apporpriate to the H&H length cartridges... I tend to think the argument has some merit based on what I've seen.

So you are basing your idea on the WSM's even though they're absolutely nothing alike!
As an aside, I've had FOUR 300 WSM's including one of the first from Winchester. I was probably the first one here on 24hr to point out the pitfalls of the design in relation to feeding back in 2001... do a search.
