[QUOTE="HellsCanyon, post: 2860826, member: 50929"] As others said, your pillar height isn’t tall enough to allow magazine engagement. You can shim with steel washers with no detrimental effect, or you can file your bottom metal latch height down. One way to tell how far you need to go is to count how many revolutions backing the action screw off allows magazine engagement. Multiply that number by .035” and that’ll tell you how much you need to file or shim. Mike @ HCA [/QUOTE]
