Blind Mag bottom metal recommendations?

I am looking at replacing the trigger on my rifle and would like to upgrade the stock Remington bottom metal at the same time. However, I don't really have any need for detachable magazines. I just want a nice feeling, strong trigger guard. I like steel over aluminum. Any suggestions?

edit: I was looking at the Badger ones, and they are more expensive than there mag ones by 5 bucks. I guess part of my reasoning of sticking with the blind mag is to save the unnecessary expense of mags but that may end up not being the case.

The term "blind magazine" normally means just that, just a blind magazine cutout cut into the stock and no floorplate at all. You just use a Remington type ADL trigger guard and there is an escutcheon in the stock for the front guard screw to bear on. The standard Remington ADL trigger guards are powered metal formed and work quite well.
