    I am shortly having a 26" barrel spun up for my T3. I'm now figuring which stock and DBM I should run. I would like to load for 147gr ELD-Ms, but I'm concerned a SA AICS mag is going to hold back my loads due to the length. So which DBM/mag would allow for the longest C.O.A.L.? I've even kicked around the idea of inletting for a LA AICS DBM, but I lm concerned the 3.4" would be too much and lead to feeding issues.

    Anyone with experience care to chime in? Thanks!
     
    Either the ctr bottom metal or the American rifle company magazine should work...loaded the 147s to 2.91 and functioned in both for me. Just depends on your stock choice as a few work with ctr but most are aics which work with arc.
