I also know someone who had a t3 in 308 reamed to 300 win mag it ended up in a sporter stock to tame the recoil.

What’s wrong with the mag? I’ve got a 40 year old rifle with a plastic rotary mag (centrefire), and it sfine. In fact it feeds so smooth I have to check it’s picked up a round if I’ve been using lesser rifles like my sako..
