[QUOTE="Litehiker, post: 886156, member: 54178"] A magazine has several advantages: 1. safer unloading than running each round through the chamber 2. different types of rounds in different magazines (for different game on same hunt) 3. less chance of bullet damage when unloading mags by hand as opposed to running them through the chamber and ejecting with the bolt. 4. Some custom magazine/trigger guard manufactures offer longer mags for longer handloads, such as with some VLD hunting bullets. 5. A properly stiff chassis will not be affected by a mag cutout. (See SOCOM's Remington PSR in .338 LM. and aluminum chassis imbedded in fiberglass stocks, as in HS Precision. See also Remington's XM2010 .300 Win. mag chassis, Accuracy International and Sako sniper rifles, all sub MOA sticks.) Look at Accurat Mag products for the highest quality custom setups. 'Nuff sed.
