6x47L with a detachable box magazine

[peterf225]

Does anyone run a 6x47L rifle with a detachable box magazine system? I am looking to add a DBM setup to a Rem 700 BDL with a 6x47L barrel sitting in a B&C stock. If so how does it feed and function? Any input is greatly appreciated.

I have a 6.5x47Lapua set up in a Sako Finnlight Detachable box Mag.... and it feeds brilliantly. If your Rem DBM was running 308 familiy brass well, I would doubt you will have any issues with a 6x47L...

Glenn,

I am looking to get a 5 round and 2 10 round mags. How much we talking and what brand? The gun is shooting GREAT. Only reason for the DBM is for shooting the FPR matches and hunting purposes.

Thanks,
Peter

I run my 6x47L out of a Surgeon SA with Badger Bottom metal and .308 AI Magazone. Feeds just fine and runs like a champ.

I run a 47 in an AI chassis with a 591 action and they feed as good as anything does.

No issues here with the AI magazines

Sako 85 that was originally a 338 Fed. Feeds the 6x47L perfectly.

They run good through my eliseo light weight hunter chassis and AI magazines. Very happy with that caliber and set up.

I have a 6.5x47 with a Stiller action in a McMillan A series stock and CDS bottom metal and it works well. Have heard of a few bugs on such setups but have think they were just not installed quite right.

Hi
I have a GBR metalwork (uk) ,this takes AICS (made by AI) mags.
I fitted to rebarreled rem 700,in choate tactical stock.
It feeds 100%

I'm running a stock Remington 700 DM in a 6x47 which feeds pretty good. My other 6x47 is a Bat action with a HS Precision stock and bottom metal which also feeds fine. Have not tried the 10 round magazine yet but I', sure it wont be a problem

I have had several 6X (not XC) rifles and they fed smoothly as could be out of the AI 308 mags as well as the HS precision magazines. I didnt see it mentioned, so I would add that the AI and HS precision mags convert your Rem 700 to center feed rather than right left feed so the round has a straight shot to the chamber.
