However, I'll test them some more before I pass judgement. They dont seem to lock into the chassis anywhere near as solidly as the metal ones. I did get some of the plastic MDT mags the other day, and I'm not overly impressed. Occasionally, I've had need for both the 10-round mags, and there was a lot of dead hot pork afterwards. However, I usually have a loaded 10-round mag in the ammo box, for when I encounter bulk hot pork. For day to day prowling, the 5-round is great, as the 10-round is a bit on the bulky side, and sticks out a long way. I have a selection of AI mags both 10 round and 5 round, in metal. (Mate also had a Rem 700 in a Tac-21 with a barrel that was only just longer than the chassis VERY compact, and a lot more easy to put in and out of the car.) OR, even getting knocked around a bit in the vehicle. However, I have a rifle that shoots superbly, which also doesnt give a s**t about piddly things like rain, etc. I kinda regret not getting a shorter barrel, rather than the 26' one on mine. I use it as my rifle on the property (Sheep & Cattle station near Longreach Qld). Magpul adjustable stock, and Nightforce NXS 5.5-22x50 scope on it. I've had a (.308 win) Remington 700 VSSF fitted in a Tac-21 chassis for 2 years now. My friend is upgrading his Nightforce on his 338 Lapua magnum. My biggest dilemma now is what colour and safe room? I will also be swapping the scope. I had even started the process of importing another custom stock. I often carry 2 firearms or compound/ rifle when pigging. It will be a field rifle, pigs dingoes, goats and deer. It just stands out as a winner on all levels against all others for my needs. It's sexy and I bought it for $800 less than my dealer sells the bare rifle. Bare rifle recoil is just Ridiculous off my matchbox.(need a bipod so I can hold the fore wood area and muzzle brake) Stainless action, Threaded carbon fibre wrapped barrel, Google it. For anyone not familiar with the rifle, it's light. Now it seems a shame to pay $$$$ and then strip it. (Fired 50 shots!) It is basically mint! Fitted with a 6.5-20x50 Ziess. I just purchased a second hand Christensen Arms Co hunter in. I'm in the process of building a custom rifle for 1,000m shooting. I have been researching stocks for rem 700 actions for about 6 months now.
