Had forgotten about you ending up with that SS M-70 bottom metal. That was off a .300 RUM donor that I turned into a .404J. I used Williams bottom metal on that build, thus this bottom metal was surplus. Should have recognized it... I like ole Rube... DF 10-4, 'Smith said he had to buff [polish] the edges to make her fit, no gap no slop, just right.

Maybe next time I'll take my .375 H&H,that "click" should give a coyote a heart attack!
