[QUOTE="SBruce, post: 700993, member: 21068"] I personally much prefer the BDL style of magazine over the detachables. Detachables limit us on our overall loaded lengths and they can and do get bent or lost easily. They take up more room in the gun (generally 3 rounds fit in a detach when 4 will fit in a BDL) and the detach sticks out the bottom further. as the throat wears out in the rifle from shooting it alot, some loads need longer OAL's to still shoot best. With the BDL, we can seat them out pretty far........not so with alot of detachables. I also feel that ammo feeding in a remmy action is smoother out of a BDL style. IMO, good choice to stick with what you've got. Even if the money weren't a concern. Good Luck on the project:) [/QUOTE]
