Hi all. This is all new for me. Ive got a remington 700 .223 top loading. Im just wondering if you can buy an adaptor to change it from a top loader to a mag? Thanks rhys

Brock and norris in Shropshire do a conversion kit as he does alot of blue printing of the remington 700 model rifles. Google his company and give him a call

Do a Google search for Remington 700 bottom metal and lots will come up.

As already said, Google is your friend.

 

Also remember Remington actually do a detachable magazine version of the 700, so OEM parts are available, I'm not sure of the work involved to fit to a floor plate version though!

I am new to centrefire and have a slot for .223 (quite fancy Tikka T3 Lite Hunter).

 

Until recently I had not come across the practicalities of 'floor plate' or 'magazine' and although, obviously, I am used to magazines - what are the pro's and con's of a floor plate?

 

My instinct is to stick to a magazine, am I wrong?
