Which of the 10 round mags will allow loading out longer than 2.25 ? I have a C-Products that is a little longer than the Elander I have, but I understand there are others that allow longer loading as well. Most of my loads are 2.248 to 2.255, but I am working on a load for the 120gr GoldDots, and loading out to 2.27 or a bit more is where I need to go to get the jump I want. Thanks for any and all comments. Gary
Which mags are longer?

Thanks for the replies. I was thinking I had read some posts relating to those dimensions,,but couldn't remember . I loaded some rounds to 2.272 and had one that didn't feed. It hung up on the feed ramp, but the rest of the 10 rd C-Prod fed fine. I backed off to 2.270. They shoot pretty good (GD 120) there, but I want to see if they'll do better a tad closer to the "kiss". If not, they are plenty good for hunting at 2.270. I need another magazine anyway, and I think I'll try an ASC.
Any experience with the " D & H " I've seen advertised recently?
Also, have seen a " DuraMag" ? Thanks again, GaryWhen a man's ways please the Lord, He makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.

Check with Midway. As I said their ArStoner mags I am sure are made by ASC. I have been using them with no problems. When I checked the other day they had them in stock at a good price. They may even have a free shipping deal going on. They have one for a few days about ever month and usually on holidays.

I found some ASC 10rd "FDE" at GunMagWarehouse for a good price, and shipping was only $ 4.99. My rifle is not "FDE", but I figured that would help me keep the mags separate. I will keep my shorter loads in the black mags(C-P & Elander), and the longer loads in the FDE (ASC) mags.

They look identical to the ASC mags. Thanks for the input.
The company today known as CPD/Duramag is a diffrent company.
But yea the mags are going to look the same, not to many things on the physical shape of the mag that can be changed and still be a grendel mag.
For what it's worth, I started with ASC mags, then went to elander (hated them) now use the cpd/duramags.
Asc and the newer CPD mags have been the best of the metal grendel mags for me.

Thanks A5. I remember reading some of the "stuff" about C-Prod a while back. I have one of their 10rd I bought a couple years ago and it works fine. The Elander 10rd I have is working ok, but still feels like it has the spring out of box car, even after keeping it fully loaded for about 2 years. I had to file the front opening to get clearance for the bullets coming out.
I ordered an ASC. Thanks for the info.When a man's ways please the Lord, He makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.

I cut them down so I could run 30 rounds out of them and they still have as much upwards tension as most grendel mags I have dealt with.
