Just to clarify my earlier post, I wouldn't mind getting an m1917 bolt fitted to the receiver, and modifying the magazine, but I prefer not to rebarrel it. I was hoping reaming the barrel to a slightly larger bore would be a "simple" fix. :thup: Once a new barrel gets added to the mix, I might as well pick whatever caliber I like. Which would be fun, I have to admit...
After some consideration, I think I'll stick with .303 for now, there has to be some way to make this work. I'd be as happy as a pig in poop if I could get the rims to stack themselves right with a healthy shove, and after some closer examination it appears that's what the feed rails are suppose to do.
That and the engine in my truck gave up, so that will be taking all spare funds for the foreseeable future. The engine has 15lbs of oil pressure dead cold!! Not good, not good!

RC20, I appreciate the input. It's good to hear from someone who has spent some time around the alaskan woods, all my buddies say I need to carry a pair of .50 AE pistols at the minimum! :lol:
