This is my .416, it is a very robust rifle.

What would you guys say that the bolt lift angle degree would be?

I’m might shoot mine this weekend, I’ll check it out and may post a picture if I can remember.

Weather too bad to shoot but here is the angle on my Montana .416 Rigby

Wish they still made these PH actions

It seems that any relatively affordable crf magnum actions for a DGR build are gone.

I like that long straight bolt

About what do you think that degree of bolt lift is?

I bought my 1999 Montana SS 404 J rifle from a wonderful member of our forum…an incredible accurate sweet shooting rifle!!!

What footprint would this action be if one wanted to put a composite replacement stock on it?

Back when the original MRC was operating they had synthetic stocks for them but for the life of me I can’t remember the manufacturer. It was one of the well known stock makers.

The footprint is unique to the old MRC. Pendleton stocks makes fiberglass stocks for the old MRC..
