I know that remmy 700 DM long actions have the feed lips machined out of the receiver so you can't stick a BDL hinged floorplate and spring style mag in as there are no lips to hold the follower
The kwik klip system from cabelas. Does it fit rem 700 DM long actions? The way it is advertised it sounds like it will fit any 700 long action. I would like to replace the factory DM on a long action and this seems like an inexpensive way to do it. I am aware of the seekins/badger/CDI/HS-precision type of set-ups but they are a bit out of my league at the moment. Thought I might try a kwik klip now and possibly upgrade later.... Although the kwik clip is cheap it seems to get reasonable reviews for what it is and it is light.
I have also read that there is a loss of OAL with these mags. I was considering rebarrelling this rifle from .30-06 to 6.5X55, a medium length cartridge so hopefully this magazine shouldn't affect the ability to seat bullets out to the lands do you think these magazines would be OK with 6.5x55 cases?
One other thing, remington 700 DM stocks have cutouts either side of the stock for mag release. Aside from the cosmetic issue will these pose any problems for installing a Kwik Klip?
