Model 70 magazine box and bottom metal

Hi all,

I have a 270wsm Model 70 that I plan on rebarrelling to 300wsm. It comes with a 2 piece bottom metal, which I want to convert to 1 piece.

My question is, will the mag box and follow be the same, so I can keep the ones in the rifle now, or will I have to get a different mag box and follower/spring to suit the 1 piece bottom metal?

Thanks

Magazine box, spring and follower are the same.
