[QUOTE="nksmfamjp, post: 2101960, member: 1951"] I did it. I started by laying out exactly where the magazine touches off on the action. You have to let the mag touch the action at the outer corners to support the magazine, it seems. Removing the outer contact seem# like the mag would float and impact feed stability. Then I removed the barrel to keep metal out of the bore. Then I cut along the centerline with a triangle needle file. Then, I cut to depth with the dremel and smoothed it up a bit with the dremel. Last, I broke edges and smoothed any slight roughness with the file. This isn’t critical as this is a clearance cut, not a feed ramp cut per say. Of course barrel reinstalled with GO/NOGO gages. It turned out well and it feeds dummy rounds like a top. It is too cold to head to the range. I kind of panicked and forgot to take pictures. [/QUOTE]
