Jerry: The magazine block had been removed to allow a slightly longer COAL. But the bolt stop and the ejector had not been modified. He also worked on the feed rails and the follower, along with installing a new Winchester extractor. At least, that's my, probably oversimplified, understanding. . S T - I read your answer to my ? AND I thot I said Thank You. ??? Musta got distracted OR clicked the wrong button. ANYWAY Thnx for your response. I appreciate it and I'm sorry my answer did NOT get posted. Jerry

Range Report: slapped the old Leupy 2x7 on the little rifle and took her the range. First 4 shot group with an 80gr TTSX and 4064 went in 0.38"! The gun has always shot that load well, but not THAT well! Tried another 4 shot group and it opened up to 0.55", well dang! Don't know what kind of pixy dust Lee sprinkled on it, but I have several other rifles that could use a dose!

More digging in my M70 parts book again does not show that part number.. But I took the follower out of my M70 FWT in .257R and it matches the follower for "S/A STD CALIBER", part number U353600710.. It also matches the part for the CRF models and it's for "ASL" magazines..(of which I have one on hand..) My rifle, being the PF FWT model, has the L/A (blocked) magazine to fit this follower.. I wonder why your part number does not appear in my books??
