Totes Magoats Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 Not sure if Left Wheeler sells them, but he has installed them in all my rifles he built for me. Maybe give him a shout. Totes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Man Graybeard Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 I use the carbon fibre inserts in my rifles. Haven't had any problems with them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lefty Wheeler Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 357 dia is .440" at the rim and a 32-20 or 32WCF IS .408" . The tube inserts will work on that caliber. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use a fiber insert in my 32-20 and it definitely helped with loading the tube. But I think a thicker aluminum insert would be better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like to cosmetics of them so much I have one tube that I polished blue off to appear as aluminum. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dusty Devil Dale Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 (edited) I've heard all kinds of good and bad stories about magazine inserts. Removing one that has been in place a while can be a challenge. But has anyone just tried to machine, or have machined, a whole different aluminum mag tube of the correct inside diameter? Matching a finish could require some creative anodizing or powder coating, but it should perform better than a thin walled tubular insert-- especially re maintenance and rust management. Just curious Edited May 3 by Dusty Devil Dale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oklahoma Dee Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 I sell them as does Lefty Wheeler. The ones I sell are made by Lefty. Aluminum insert with stainless follower and spring. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
