Setting up a new hunting version of my 300 Norma Mag Improved. Looking at the price on BDL bottom metal, I might as well go a few ounces heavier and use a DBM. With standard BDL I would probably be limited to 2 rounds in the mag anyhow with how big the rugby case is.
My loaded rounds limit my selection on everything. Action will be a CC Axiom that can accept longer mags. COAL with longest bullet I might use is 3.7" (Sierra 230gr MK touching lands)
Not many options with that round length. What would you suggest?
I don't like the obnoxious latches on some of the dbm's that can get caught on things. I really like the APA dbm latch design. Must also be made from aluminum to save weight. Problem is almost nobody lists the internal mag length dimensions. I have never owned a bolt rifle with dbm so looking for some advice here. I have my own mill so inletting the stock is not a big issue. Thanks
