Anybody have an extra Winchester model 70 magazine spacer?

I’ve got a long action stainless classic that I rebarreled to 7-08. The magazine is too long and won’t feed reliably, but if the rounds are moved forward in the magazine a bit, they feed fine. I already have a new spring and follower, but the rounds will still slide back and feed poorly. If I can JB weld another spacer into the magazine, I think the problem may be solved.

It’s a long shot, but does anybody have a spacer they have removed or an extra magazine with a spacer that i can take off their hands? I’d pay for it. PM me if so. Thanks

Have you checked Numrich?

I forgot about that site. Midwest was no help but Numrich does have a magazine with spacer in stock that I can drill out. Thanks

Why not just use that magazine?

Because I need two spacers to shorten it to 3.2” at least
