I have a LH mdl.70 which was rebarreled from 338win. mag. to 375HH.A new mag box and follower were installed at that time.A problem has come up,if you just put one rd. in mag and turn the rifle upside down give it a little shake the rd. falls free. Now when the rifle is fully loaded sometimes when you get to the last round it will pop up a bit to much and jam the rifle up. I think I need a stronger mag spring.The only extra power mag spring that Brownells lists is for a Mauser.Also sometimes when I have the rifle fully loaded and fire the first shot say from prone the empty case does not fly clear from the action.Now I know that I cause this by not throwing the bolt back at full speed but I was wondering if a stronger spring on the ejector would help reduce this.My MRC mdl.1999 which is a clone of the mdl.70 does not have either of these problems.
