I've got a Remington 700 BDL in 30-06 (factory barrel) and have been offered a McMillan stock that has a factory magnum barrel channel; how much bigger is the factory magnum barrel contour than the standard caliber contour?

It will be a good excuse to rebarrel it with a no.5 kreiger

Oregon, There isn't that much of a difference. Closer than it appears.

There will be noticalbe distance between the barrel and the stock.
Been there done it. Was not happy with the looks.
