Hi,
I have a 1980 Winchester M-70.
It was converted from 30.06 to .308.
I would like to expand the magazine capacity from 4 to 5 rounds.
I have the problem, that it does not repeat round 4 correctly and round 5 does not fit.
Can someone tell me what part I need for this?
A short action magazine follower?
Another magazine spring?
Another magazine box?
Do I have to change something on the stock or will another magazine box also fit?


It would be nice if you could tell me the right part numbers or a link to an Ebay or other online offer.
Thank you very much.
