rhinsd Posted August 3, 2005 Posted August 3, 2005 I've got a new R-1 in 308 for hog hunting but want the flexibility to go 300 win mag or 300wsm for elk. What do I have to buy to make the conversion to either upgraded calibers? Quote
tucker301 Posted August 3, 2005 Posted August 3, 2005 Buy the desired barrel/bolt assembly (if you can find one). Quote
rhinsd Posted August 3, 2005 Author Posted August 3, 2005 barrel, bolt, AND a magazine....right? Are dealers selling them. How do I acquire these? Quote
tucker301 Posted August 3, 2005 Posted August 3, 2005 It has been suggested that interested parties contact Mann & Sons 618-357-2911. Someone also posted that Cabelas can get them. I think any dealer can order it for you. Then it's just a matter of price/time. Quote
rhinsd Posted August 4, 2005 Author Posted August 4, 2005 So I called Benelli and the answer, simple enough, is that when you buy a barrel (only '06 and 300 wmag now available) you get the magazine and bolt together as part of a "all you need" kit. Maybe 300 wsm next year. Quote
