Gunsmithing Replacing HS Mag with Wyatts on a REM SA?

[DocGlenn]

I've got a 7WSM (Rem SA) that has HS Precision detachable mag. The HS is nice and light, but I can't load Bergers out as far as I would like due to mag length. Is it possible to change out the HS for a Wyatt's and if so, would that allow me to seat the Bergers out farther? BTW, the stock is a Manners if that makes a difference. Thanks for any info!

By clip I'm sure you meant Magazine?

Yep. My bad. Correction has been made. Thanks for pointing out my error. So back to the orignal problem......

The HS system is basically drop-in to a BDL inlet, as is the Wyatt.
I don't know the Wyatt magazine box length, but it should be a plug and play swap to pull out the HS and install the Wyatt.

Not sure how long your looking to load but the max OAL on my Wyatt's is 2.875. You may be single loading

I load to 2.975 in my wyatts magazine, and could go a little longer if I had to!
