adding detachable magazine

[tiggity]

I am wondering if anyone has added a detachable magazine to their rifles. I would like to be able to remove and insert a magazine in my rifle so I don’t have to thumb 3 bullets into my gun every time I go out. Just really wondering where you may have gotten it done and if you have had any problems, likes, dislikes etc.
Thanks for any info

i have a winchester 70 also, in 25 06, havent looked into geting the detach mag for that one but if you can get the mag kit for it im sure a gun smith could do the work, iv been told there is a realy good one in dawson creek if your close to there

If you have a hinged floorplate,you can load them quicker through the floorplate.I have never loaded any of my rifles from the top unless using them as a single shot.

Send a pm to Solothurn. He has a shopin Calgary called Alberta Tactical Rifle, and he has kits for Remmies but might be able to point you in the right direction for your Winchester.
