I am very interested in your floor plate kit. I like the release button better than the other one available, and as a small business owner, I support other small businesses as much as possible. One question, have you done any experimentation with feeding on loads over the saami spec for COL? If so, any feeding issues?
The two reasons I'm looking at replacement of the plastic dbm are, I don't like dbms on hunting rifles (it really sucks when you suddenly discover that your rifle is a single shot while in the field, because the mag fell out somewhere on the trail), and I want the ability to load cartridges with a longer COL, provided the throat allows it.

I thought I posted this before, but appearantly not.
I have decided on your floor plate kit, as I like your release button better than the other option. And, as a smart business owner, I support other small businesses whenever possible.
One question. Have you done any experimentation with long COL loads in your magazine? Any feeding issues with cartridges loaded long?
The two reasons I want this kit...
I don't like dbm's on hunting rifles. The first time anyone discovers that their bolt action repeater is now a single shot, when they're miles from camp, they'll join the same club. And, I want the ability to load cartridges as long as the throat will allow, if they will feed reliably. I read in this thread that your internal magazine length is 2.49", but have you done any feed testing with cartridges pushing the max length? Just curious, thanks for reaching.

Has anyone try this using Dip base plate? I wonder if there will be some gap issue
