308 in a 30/06 length action

[Johnch]

I have several Savage 110 rifles
So while at the club tonight I see a guy posting a sale add for 3 Savage barrels
22/250 , 7/08 and 308

Going to look at the barrels Monday evening

But my question is
Will I run into feeding problems if I don't install a mag block to shorten the mag length ?

I took a 110 30-06 and rebarreled to a 308, feeds fine.

you shouldnt have problems with it if you dont let shells get miss alined. simi autos will give problems most of the time unless you put a block in to keep them from moving

[deltaenterprizes]

At one time Savage only made one length action for all calibers and put a block in the mag and something to shorten the stroke of the bolt.
I have been told a block in the front is better but I have them in the back on my rifles.

Israelis rebarreld many a Mauser 98 to 7.62x51. I have a FN they done so, never a problem.

Question is mute
As I Passed on the barrels

It looks like the guy never cleaned or oiled the barrels
Rust on the outside and posible pitting inside the 308 barrel
