Rifle- Browning A Bolt II, 300 Win Mag.
I've had this rifle for a while now, and have been seating bullets out farther, in the search for accuracy with specific bullets. There's a cast metal insert within the magazine that limits COL, so with these longer rounds, it's a single shot rifle...
Has anyone opened the forward edge of this insert up? Not very technically demanding, a die grinder followed by a file would do the job, but I suspect that other gun nuts with Stony Point gages have worked past this obstacle and have experience worth sharing. The mag insert limits forward travel by blocking the shoulder of the cartridge, so recoil induced battering isn't an issue.
