I can't answer your question, but that is a nice looking rifle.

I just wonder why someone would build a rifle using a 700 and modify it in a way that standard mags would not work. Just curious.

Im hoping someone has one that uses the AICS mags. That what i think it uses. but 120 bucks for a mag is alot to dump on a maybe so i wanna make fa sho before I pony up and order it.

Its a mag capacity thing John. If im right about this one using AICS mags then it can utilize a .308 mag with up to 20 rd capacity. That on a BA repeater is a tactical shooters cherry pie.

The stock is a Bell and Carlson.

Don't think it is a AICS bottom though.
