Thread: Help me understand extended magazine boxes

Wyatt extended magazine boxes, do they replace the internal mag box in a Rem 700 with a drop floorplate ? So you are limited to around 3 or 4 rounds in the magazine ?

The AI style detachable mags don't seem to have anywhere near the internal length of those, so is there another alternative if you want to use long loaded cases in a detachable mag ?

Extended magazine boxes are longer so you can seat projectiles out further. They often require you to mill out the back of the magazine area. They are not any deeper so you are still limited to factory magazine capacity.

On the other hand the extended capacity ones especially the howas were designed by a chiropractor to cause maximum discomfort and promote kidney problems

Dose this help?
Sorry

Detachable mags are a problem, generally they are a little short

The double stack AI mag has a longer internal length than the single stock AICS, that can be addressed though
