Rem 700 bottom metal

I have a Badger M5 bottom metal on my AAC-SD that sits in a McM A5 stock. I think it's a great design and can really take a beating.

The only downside is that you need to plan for what trigger you intend to use. I use a Timney and it required opening things up a bit in the bottom metal to accommodate the large shoe and bolt release.

I've got a Manners stock inbound with the DBM mini-chassis...the chassis is made by Badger and is the same as the M5 bottom metal...I like the Badger bottom metal so much, I bought another.

I feel, however, that with either choice you make, whether it be Badger, Seekins or Surgeon, you will be happy.
