Thanks for the measurements. They look so close that I think it might be worth a try. I wish someone had one in stock so that I could try before I buy.

Thanks, I will call them. I wonder . . . .300 Win. Mag. rounds are not that much longer than .30-06 rounds. Is there enough room in a Benelli 10 round .30-06 magazine to fit .300 Win. Mag. rounds? Anyone know??

I recently purchased a R1 in .300 Win. Mag. Excellent rifle, but it could be dramatically improved if a 10 round magazine was added in .300 Win. Mag. (like the one available for .30-06). This time of year, I like to go hog hunting in Texas. A 10 round magazine would be much preferred for hog hunting. This is especially important as a safety feature since a large wounded hog/wild boar is likely to charge after you and a few extra rounds could save you from a vicious mauling. I wanted to use my R1 for hog hunting, but until I can get a higher capacity magazine for it, I'm going to have to stick with my SOCOM 16. Can anyone PLEASE tell me, does Benelli have any plans for a higher capacity magazine for the R1 in .300 Win. Mag.???
