First things first...I think it's possible but am I misinformed?
This is what I have..
1. I have a Remington 700 ADL in 30-06 with a bad barrel I am looking to do something with.
2. I have a 375 RUM takeoff barrel from a Remington 700. Coincidence??? Yes, but what a wonderful coincidence.
3. I have a buddy with a Remington 700 bolt from a 300 RUM that he is looking to get rid of.
Can I make use of these 3 components to build a 375 Ultra Mag?
From what I can tell the answer is yes, as long as I replace the magazine box (and maybe the follower).
thoughts?
