    Shimming magazines

    GrantA I will surely let you know. I do not have any AI mags in yet. I am going to give the unit I ordered a go and see how it works and if I like the AICS mags. Because this is my dedicated hunting rig, I may even send it back and replace for an HS precision dbm so I can have mags that are...

    Shimming magazines

    Ordered from PTG and it is coming with the mag. Was not aware it was such a commonly known fact. Thank you for clarifying!! :) guess I'll have to just to inlet for my m5 if i want AI mags

    Shimming magazines

    Ya... figures. I am raging right now. Are there no manufactures of a bolt in dBm that takes AI mags for a 700 long action?

    Shimming magazines

    Well amazingly this exact thing just happened to me. Parts are not here yet. I am curious.. how do the regular AI mags fit without the shims? Is it just a loose fit or does it not lock in place at all?

    If I inlet my stock for DBM...

    Goodnight what's with you guys... I do not intend to go back and forth every day. All I want is to use AI mags without milling my stock and eliminating my ability to use the floorplate again should I wish to do so. That is all.

    Shout Out To Pacific Tool and Guage

    Customer service from Sheila is top notch. Ordered my Stealth Bolt in DBM early this morning. Received a confirmation email from her notifying me it was in stock and shipping. She just called me to inform me that they are actually out of stock and it won't be in for 3-4 weeks. My Heart...

    If I inlet my stock for DBM...

    I know it. But My whole point behind it was to not eliminate my ability to go back and forth. Didnt want to inlet anything. That was just one oddball scenario I tried to dream up to rationalize not shipping my stock off for in-letting this morning. I like how sleek my rifle is with the floor...

    If I inlet my stock for DBM...

    So I do not know how I missed it but PTG does in fact make exactly what I was looking for in the above post!! I have somehow overlooked them every time? No idea how... Remington 700 Long Action / DROP IN Detachable Bottom Metal / AI Mag compatible Just purchased this from them moments ago...

    If I inlet my stock for DBM...

    I do not want to inlet for the day that I may drop a mag in the field or whatever scenario you can think of and I want/need to throw my hinged floorplate back on. I'd rather not mess with the stock for multiple reasons. I was hoping I could find a drop in bottom metal thats accepts AI mags. No...

    If I inlet my stock for DBM...

    Got my HS Precision stock for my Rem700. Definitely want DBM. It has the hinged floor plate now. IF I inlet it for my spare M5 DBM that accepts AI mags.. will this prevent me from going back to a hinged floor plate should I wish to? Its late and my thinking is slower than normal... but I am...

    HS Precision DBM experiences?

    Got a new titanium 700 in .270 for my birthday. Thing is awesome. I threw an extra aluminum bedded HS precision stock on it. This is my hunting gun now so I don't need to get all "tactical" with a badger m5 dBm or anything. Im sure the badger model is considered superior but i Just want a simple...
