JTomlinson,

Sounds like you really know some stuff! This is just the kind of information I have been missing for years. Where can I find some technical data, i.e. drawings, measurements for the '98? As it turns out, I may not have a magnum after all. I could have been misled by the man I bought the action from. Who knows?

Anyway, thanks again for your concise reply. This is what I have been looking for all along.

Lee
