[QUOTE="4xforfun, post: 730244, member: 9172"] Just thinking....Probably save my self $300.00 ++ and just use the factory Remington BDL bottom metal, box and spring. Should fit in the new McMillan stock nicely. I can always change later. Use the mag with the 300 WBY and single feed the Edge. So...never mind. BUT....I did a little research. How big of a deal is it to install one of the Wyatt extended box mags? Once you make everything fit, can the factory bottom metal be used again? In otherwords...As a 300 WBY....use the factory bottom metal. Switch to the Edge tube and put the Wyatts box on set up for the Edge. Is that even possable? The reason for this is that I was told that I will have feed issues with the WBY when used in a mag set up for a RUM case....and visa versa. The bigger case will not feed through the smaller box cutout designed for the skinnier WBY case. [/QUOTE]
