    Will a Rem 710 mag fit a Rem 700 action?

    I'm working on a project that's based on using a 700 BDL magazine for a 30-06. The local place has a pair of 710 mags for 30-06 at 15 bucks each. Will they fit a Rem 700? I don't think they will, but before I write off the cheap mags, I figured I'd ask the guys here who might have one.
