[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 860667, member: 48043"] I've gotten to the point where I won't hunt a blind mag. rifle. It's too much of a pain to cycle those rounds through and if you are after shooting hours hunting it may even run afoul of game and fish regs here. Simple fix is to use a clip, drop floorplate, or single shot rifle and forget the blind mag at home. If your mag is metal it won't bend back if you've bent the lips to feed correctly. The other thing about going back from a clip fed rifle to a blind mag is you'll probably have to have an internal box mag. made up as the action is probably relying on your mag's feed lips to keep the rounds in place. I'd like to see a 'smith weigh in on this for your action though. [/QUOTE]
