I really like the CDI Precision DBM but you are going to need to have it custom fitted to your stock. If you give them a call they will take care of any questions that you may have.

Check out the Canadian vendors on www.canadiangunnutz.com

I'm pretty sure there are a few that distribute for badger ordnance and others.

I'm looking to convert my 30-06 700 BDL from a hinged bottom plate to a detachable magazine. I've seen a Kwik Klip kit on Cabelas website. Has anyone used this kit or know anything about it? It is about a third of the price of any of the ones on this forum. If I bought this kit, would I get what I paid for and regret it later, or is it a good deal? Any advice on any of the other kits already mentioned would also be helpful. I'm looking for an easy conversion (something I could do myself). The only kit on this list that has listed a 30-06 is the one from Wyatt's Outdoor.

I have not had any personal experience with the Kwik Klip Kit from Cabelas but it does look like a good kit overall. It seems that in some cases it needs to be modified to fit certain setups but overall is a drop in kit. Let us know if you end up purchasing the kit!

Surgeon Rifles makes a really good one that comes with an Accuracy International magazine.

I saw yesterday that Kwik Klip now makes one for the 700 SA. The bottom metal and one 10 rd. mag is a little less than $220 from a place in Canada.

I just bought a700 SPS tactical with the Hogue overmolded stock. I HATE hinged floor plates. I'm also not a gunsmith, but I'm reasonably handy. Does anyone have experience installing one of these kits on this model? Are any of these kits a true "drop in"?

The easiest and most true drop in would be getting a kit like the following

There are also some drop in kits for the factory stock like the following

I like those ones at Tactical Works. Has anyone installed a spa heavy barrel onto one of them before? How much smithing did it take?

I am not sure on the barrel but I really love my Tactical Works setup on my 700 AAC SD

I've heard that the 'Gold Standard' is the Badger. But they are very expensive!

I've heard that Wyatt is good value for money but the magazines can be a bit troublesome to load.

Looking at the Tactical works, they look even more expensive than the badgers!

If I have an SPS 700 .308 with the hogue stock then what is a good option for me?

Thanks!

I saw this but they don't list my .308 as an option. I'm just going with the Boyd stock for now.

This is for 700 in .308 with the heavy bull barrel. Should make shooting more enjoyable not having to load every 4 rounds or so.

Want to use my 700 BDL for NRA 100 yard competition. (100 yard because I don't want to violate the beauty by changing barrels to a faster twist.) Which of the Magazine conversion kits will enable me to use my AR 15 magazines?

So which conversion has 10 or 20 round mags for easy change? I like the feel and grasp of the old 20s because of 30 years military service with the m16 and the M14. At this age I really don't want to find a new touch.

Certain kits will use the accuracy international mags, others are proprietary ( and expensive)

All i can suggest is read the options in this thread and then do some Google research.

Some might make 20 round mags, but most are 10 round
