I have a 223 Remington M700. I want to swap bolts for a 473 bolt face bolt body and put on a 220 swift barrel. I know I will have to change out the magazine box. Am I likely to have any feeding problems?
Thanks,
Bill

Bill You'd have no problem posting in the classifieds to trade actions with somebody. I guarantee it would not last long.

I thought of doing the same thing,and by using a 223 rem bbl with a 12 twist and rechambering it to the swift you could shoot 60 gr balls too.

Thanks,
Bill Bill, I have a 700ADL in 243 I'd be glad to trade. I even have a stainless sporter 223 take off you could punch.
I enjoy handguns and I really like shotguns,...but I love rifles!
