Long action 6.5 saum mag. issue

[Ranger188]

Looking for a reliable magazine to feed 6.5 saum in a long action?
Tried the MDT but the nose would dive down before feeding into the action. Magpul same issue.
Have a long action KRG Bravo chassis, so 3.815 or shorter will work, comes with a spacer to use either length mag.
Haven't tried the Accurate Mags yet.

Hawkins hunter magazine with the long action spacer for 6.5 PRC might solve your issue.

Had the same issue with 6.5PRC in LA. Purchase some of the cheap magpul LA AICS 30-06 mags. File the lips down a bit. Works for me.
On other threads, there is reports of a LA 308 mag that accurate (I think) makes. Its in standard LA AICS and CIP length. After bending the lips out some they work on 6.5prc too.

I have an accurate LA 308 mag I'd sell if you want to try that.

Those hawkins LA mags with spacer work great. My friend shoots 7saum with them out of a long action bat vampire, feeds fantastic.

Called Accurate Mag. and ordered 1 they suggested.
If that doesn't work, I'll give the Hawkins a try.
Thanks for the responses.

What mag did you end up getting to work?

I ended up with this one. Works OK
Only one I found that would feed the SAUM case in a long action without nose diving.
No adjustments done to it.
