.338-06 Ackley
I want to rebarrel an old mod 70 .270 to .338-06 Ackley for Red stag & wild boar. Would any modifications to the mag or bolt be necessary? What do you think of this caliber? Any other ideas for the mod 70?

RE: .338-06 Ackley
I don't think you could go wrong with this choice. It probably comes closer to an "all-round" caliber for North American and African plains game than any other!! I believe it will feed from the magazine with no modifications. You could probably get a dummy round or two from someone to try for feeding before you rebarrel. I know a plain .338/'06 would feed from a .270 mag. with no alterations. This round, with the correct bullet, would be excellent for ANY North American game shooting!!

OOPS!! Probably would be great for any South American game, too!!
