Win 70 Long Action Build

[Exo]

Hey guys, im helping a friend figure out his build. He has a Winchester 70 .300wm (long action). He just ordered a MCM A3-5 Stock for it, so in about 5-6 months he should have that. He wants to start buying so when the stock comes in he can get it all built.

He wants a DBM for it, who makes the bottom metal/magazine's for long actions that will fit into a MCM A3-5???

I recommended to him that he look at bartlein barrel's as he wants to ditch the light weight / hunting contour barrel that is on it.

opinions???

Hi Exo
As I have a soft spot for the Win Mod. 70 and I was curious about this, I did a fast search.
Check this out on Midway; I am not familiar with it, so you may want to look for more reviews.

If your friend is building a LR rifle, a barrel change is recommended. He can always call Bartlein, or other reputable barrel companies to have their input on his options.
Good luck on the build; post pics when done. Some of these M70 builds are just bad ass.
Good shooting.

I know McMillan can inlet the stock for the CDI Precision bottom metal, I've talked to them about it for my Model 70. I don't know about the Badger but it's McMillan, no doubts they can do it ...

Nope, since Badger does not make an M-5 DBM for the Winchester Model 70 actions then we really cannot inlet a stock for it. CDI is the only one I know off.

Correct, I misread; wishful thinking probably

go with 300H&H...if he is building a M70 that is the traditional round

 

[Exo]

He's not building an M70 per say, just a precision stick out of a .300wm
