Blaine was one of the best people I've ever known. Really a good guy. Sorry he's gone.
Yeah..that may have been me..i posted videos so..its not B.S.Gonna throw this out there-
I’m wanting a repeater in 20VT variants-
I wanting one to feed the case- from a magazine-
I read where one guy used a MDT/Acis mag- I call BS !!! - I have 3 varieties of 223 mags, w/ different lengths of mag lips, none feed the 221FB case- it pops out nose diving into the bottom of the barrel-on a custom SA Rem clone-
I can see the CZ 527 working (221FB version). Guessing that’s why Calhoon used them for his 19 builds…they feed.
Don’t know if a 223 version would or not w/o messing with the magazine
Now, I read where the Howa mini feeds the case.. don’t know if it’s with the factory mag or using a single follower- or some magazine modification required-….
I’ve had 3 Rem 221FB rifles..converted 1 to single shot, sold the others… so I’m not interested in the Rem at all…
I seen where 1 guy used a Howa mini & CZ bottom metal to get one to feed… so I guess anything is possible…
What would be your decision today- given the choices of current, available actions…???
Thanks, Gabe
I have several single shots… just wanting a repeater…so I’ll have to purchase the current setup to work this out…
Thanks for sharing.
What degree countersink did u use?Real simple to nk size down brass-
No bushings, or dies needed..
That's another uncommon countersink ...70* total.angle.

I guess for this I could just grind whatever angle I wanted on a drill bit.
Seems that is the ONLY way to smoothly strip a round off the mag...just use your thumb on the rear of the bolt to cloase it and it is seamless.
