[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1027960, member: 2736"] All of the short Mags do better with the center feed mag box. I use the Watts mag box with the flat top follower. (Not expensive). The staggered feed does not handle the Short mags well (WSMs, SAUMs and RCMs) and will sometimes only handle only 2 rounds without popping out. Some work on the feed rails may be necessary. Any good Gunsmith can install the center feed box and follower and re work the feed rails. I no longer attempt to tune the staggered feed boxes because the center feed works so well and does not mark the bullet or case. Even if the rifle was set up for Short Magnums they can still damage the case and bullet. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
