Another NOOB question: R700 detachable mags?

[tjg]

I've got an all stock R700 chambered in .308 and it's left handed.

I've seen the H-S Precision and the Badger Ordnance versions.

What does Calguns recommend?

Thanks guys!

I have the ptg dbm setup. It's not finished but the quality looks good and plenty of people use them. They run about $120 or so not including a magazine. Then you have to have your stock modified for it. AR15barrels (Randall) will be finishing mine.

HS Precision - you'll have to buy their magazines.

Badger Ordinance - expensive.

Value wise, and you can use AICS magazines: PTG http://shop.pacifictoolandgauge.com/...oducts_id=1432

Can't go wrong for $130.

I put the Badger Ordinance Bottom medal on mine and am very happy with it and yes Randall installed it for for.

I would probably get PTG after looking into it. But I am still undecided. I might just buy a mini chassis and new stock instead.

Does it have a plastic Remington stock, or is it a model that has an upgraded stock like an HS? If you have the plastic Remington stock, make sure you upgrade the stock and don't try to put a metal bottom on the plastic stock--it's too flimsy and will be waste. (I might be stating the obvious, but just in case...)

I recommend and fit the PTG bottom metals almost every week.
Great quality at a great price compared to ALL other options.

It is the factory plastic stock. It is the SPS Tactical model.

Check out the wyatt drop magazine kit. It fit perfectly without any inletting on my hs precision stock. It was a perfect drop kit. It came with a

Where are you located? If you are in the bay area, I would recommend Marc at Spartan, he fit mine on my .308 Rem700. I went with the Badger set up, and bought Accurate Mags, which are slightly cheaper than the AI mags.

Randall does that model require a lot of precise inletting for an HS prec. stock?

Just curious, why? I don't know anything about this setup but I'm interested in getting a detachable mag system for my 700.
