I has my H&S Precision PSS stock inlet-ted by Badger for there M5 bottom and Purchased a PT&G stealth bottom. I'm having some feed issues with the metal installed.

It looks like the front end of the metal needs to go up higher into the stock as the bullet tip is hitting the bottom of the feed ramp and it's hard to push the bolt forward and get the round chambered.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Am I going to need to deepen the inlet up front? I was hopping this would all be a drop in fit as the advertise the Stealth bottom fitting a M5 inlet.

Majority of dbm will give you this litle prob.. i think your good to go you just need to tweak your mag lip a litle.. tighten rear and open front a litle.this wil make rounds point litle angle u dont need that much.
 
Thanks bjay.

I measured the rear and the front and opened the front to .420" and now it works fine. I ran the mag thru over a dozen times with dummy rds and works with no issues.

You were spot on....
