winchester model 70 in 6br

[JayCutright]

Anyone ever chamber a short action box magazine style model 70 in one of the short br cases.
Im planning on doing one soon and i thought id throw this out there and see if anyone has had a problem feeding or extracting cases.

I've been contemplating the same thing. I have a model 70 sporter varmint in .243 that I don't use to build on.

Jay,
I'll asked some of the guys I used to shoot with at Camp Pendleton. A good number of them prefer and use the Winchester 70 repeater. Most of these guys are retired/former Marine and Navy marksman. The gentleman who performs the accuracy work on the biggest portion of the rifles is a retired armorer.
