If you want a bolt gun with a magazine, look for one that you can add AICS compatible bottom metal to (Winchester/FN, Remington, Tikka, etc...). IMO, thats the only way to do it right.

I can see the value of a lower and magazines that are somewhere between an AR10 and the current crop of AR 15's. Unfortunately, it would take a complete mindset change by manufacturers and maybe with customers to make it happen. This might more easily be done with a bolt action than a semi auto. kwg For liberals and anarchists, power and control is opium, selling envy is the fastest and easiest way to get it. TRR.

It ain't a GAP or a Noveske, but a solid rifle nonetheless.

The Swiss built their Mausers (6.5x55) with a slightly longer box to accommodate the bullet. The results has always been an accurate rifle built on the small Mauser receiver. I'm thinking a slightly larger receiver and magazine would allow the aerodynamically improved bullet (77 grains plus) to fit in something .223. kwg For liberals and anarchists, power and control is opium, selling envy is the fastest and easiest way to get it.

The 77's are phuqqing TURDS in comparison...due their schit profile,expressly designed to fit schit COAL confines. Hint.............
