gazzar15 Posted September 25, 2012 Report Share Posted September 25, 2012 A question for the learned on here. Is it possible to use a 25-06 boltface for 300 winmag? 13.51mm for the base diameter on the 300 as opposed to 11.9 mm for the 25.06 Thanks Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tackb Posted September 25, 2012 Report Share Posted September 25, 2012 i would say it depends on the make of bolt and if it has enough meat to be opened up safely to accomodate the larger round? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
