[QUOTE="TopPin, post: 2869958, member: 109070"] You have to ask yourself if you want a mag box, or not. In my opinion if it’s going to be a hunting rifle I personally prefer a hinge floor plate. I have rifles with both, and hunt with them. Main reason why I prefer the floor plate is 1 I prefer to pack my rifle and not have to worry about the box accidently falling out. Is it going to happen probably not. 2 they are cleaner, less bulk, less dirt and other factors entering the chamber or potentially disrupting the feeding cycle. 3 easy to carry and more comfortable when packing your rifle in your hand or with a pack on. Mag boxes are not as comfortable to hold onto when carrying the rifle, and get hung up occasionally while using a pack. In my opinion. Depending on your shooting style I like a pic rail and bipod, I hunt mountains, and prairies, but never have any desire to carry a tripod. So that is what I personally prefer. Q cups are nice to have but if you walk an along ways being able to sling your rifle from shoulder to shoulder without it feeling awkward is a bonus. You just need to ask yourself what type of shooting / hunting that you do and what is the easiest solution to make it happen. Eliminating things you don’t truly need speeds up the shooting process, and also saves on the “weight factor”. Every once counts in the mountains and you just need to compair functionality to weight for what you are choosing to do. Good luck, and keep hammering. [/QUOTE]
