[QUOTE="Lpart, post: 1358121, member: 25642"] I just got my 6.5 CM build on a Rem 700. We put in a Wyatt MBE-5 extended mag box. Followed Wyatt's instructions for milling receiver etc. Now the first two rounds go in fine but the third is difficult and tends to tip forward so that rim is not available to the bolt and will not feed unless I go use something to force the front of the cartride down so the rim tips up in the back. Had a fellow at the range suggest trying to bend the lips of the box out a little but I am reluctant to try anyting without some more confirmation. Does anyone else have any suggestions? Using Wyatt's suggest follower as well with the spring that is stiffer than the factory spring. Tried the factory spring and it didn't work. [/QUOTE]
