.284 Shehane from AICS Mag on LA

[Troy G]

I am wanting to put together a .284 Shehane on a long action Rem 700 clone repeater to take full advantage of case capacity and be able to eject long loaded rounds. The bottom metal I will be using takes AICS mags.

I assume the AICS mag I need is the .300 WM?

I assume the feed lips will need to be altered?

Anyone done this without issues or is it a feeding nightmare?

Thanks.

1) Yes.
2) No.
3) No issues with a straight 284.

I even run the straight 284 through 338 mags with a little lip modification. 300s are plug and play.
