REMINGTON 700 DETACHABLE MAGAZINE DROP-IN KITS Reviews & Ratings

LEGACY SPORTS INTERNATIONAL REMINGTON 700 DETACHABLE MAGAZINE DROP-IN KITS

The Ammo Boost Detachable Magazine Drop-In Kit for the Remington 700 BDL from Legacy Sports International contains everything you need to boost your 700's magazine capacity. At the same time, you'll also get the speed and convenience of a detachable box magazine for ultra-fast reloads. Each Ammo Boost kit consists of (1) the magazine itself and (2) a drop-in bottom metal assembly that replaces your rifle's triggerguard, hinged floorplate, and the surrounding frame. All components are constructed of reinforced, injection-molded, impact-resistant polymer. This super-tough polymer keeps weight and your out-of-pocket cost down.

Gives detachable box-mag versatility to a Remington 700 BDL
Durable, lightweight molded-polymer construction
Easy, drop-in installation
5- and 10-round capacities available
TORQUE: 30 - 35 inch lbs. on screws

Installation of the Ammo Boost Detachable Magazine Drop-In Kit is fast and simple. Just remove the factory floorplate assembly and install the Legacy parts. (Save the factory part in case you ever want to return the rifle to its original configuration.) The kit is available in both 5-Rd and 10-Rd capacities for 700 BDL rifles chambered in a variety of popular cartridges. Why buy a whole new rifle when you can increase the versatility AND magazine capacity of the Remington 700 BDL you already own with an Ammo Boost kit?

Good fitment

I have a HS Precision stock and wanted a DBM but expensive if you go HS...so this works well. I would like a little better construction but it works for a bolt action with a BDL design.

Would you recommend this? Yes, I would recommend to a friend

This kit did indeed drop right in!

I purchased this kit for a 22-250 on the advice of a buddy. After also getting a new BDL stock the kit slipped in like butter. Has worked flawlessly so far. Only 4 stars because I want to see how it holds up after some serious hard use.

Good product, needed minor fitting.

I ordered this to upgrade my Rem. 700 Varmint rifle in 223. I had to lightly trim a little material off the top front edge of the magazine for it to fit past the floor of the receiver. Once I did that it clicks in and out easily and feeds cartridges perfectly. The trigger guard assembly was a perfect fit into the Boyd's thumbhole varmint stock that was made for a hinged floorplate. This is an easy upgrade for anyone with a little skill with a razor knife and a bit of sandpaper.

Looks good works good

For the price and fit cant beat this. I installed on my 264 win mag. 2 screws and loosen bottom trigger guard and floor plate it drops off and put this back on with factory screws.its plastic but I dont mind. Sure you can get better. Kit but it will cost you over 200 bucks. I like mine.

Good value

These fit my two 700 rifles without any modification and have had no feeding problems. Their durability will be evident in time and are currently working good.

Nice, easy install to Rem 700P in 223

I tired of the internal magazine and decided to try a conversion kit. Many are expensive and for $69 including the 10 round mag this is a good choice. It fit exactly into my 700P - remove two bolts so the original assembly drops out, slide this in, and torque the original bolts through it to 40-45 ft. lbs. (kit recommended; Rem recommends 45 ft. lbs.). The mag comes in and out easily. Putting it in barely tilting it up in the front makes it go in even easier. I put two snap caps in and both loaded smoothly and ejected as the bolt was pulled back. The loading is much easier than the original equipment.
