I am a new owner of an 81 in 35 Rem. At first, the magazine would only hold four rounds; the fifth would cause most of the other rounds to erupt out of the top of the mag.
I slightly bent the magazine springs to just barely hold five loaded 35 Rem rounds. I've run into conflicting information concerning magazine capacity. I know the 300 Savage were limited to four rounds due to the fatter cartridge case. Am I damaging the magazine spring loading five?
