I am trying to put the finishing touches on a 30-378 build and can't seem to find a detachable magazine that works for the 30-378 with my setup.
I have a Manners Pro Hunter Stock, Impact Precision 787 Long Action, Proof Research Barrel, Khales k525i scope, Hawkins Precision DBM CIP+ (3.85" long) bottom metal. Everything works great together, but I can't seem to find a magazine that will hold the massive 30-378 bullet. Closest thing I have found is the CIP+ Lapua .338 Mag Magazine. Although lengthwise it fits (barely as my COAL is 3.745" and the mag will hold 3.75" COAL) and I can get one bullet into it, but the neck on the 30-378 is about 0.2" longer that the .338 Lapua, so the vertical support on the Accurate Mag CIP+ ASIC magazine hits the shoulder and so I can't get more than one bullet in it. Has anyone successfully found an ASIC CIP+ (3.85") magazine that will hold the 30-378 cartridge???? (See the picture showing the neck on the brass that will hit on this indented ridge on the mag if I load more bullets in. This is my third attempt and haven't had any luck. ANYONE???

I started using UM Bottom Metal and 4" mag on the 30-378 builds I have done recently. All builds prior to this were BDL and wyatts boxes. It feeds perfectly.
Here is one I sent to a customer a few weeks ago with UM metal and mag.

Your other option is to mill out the ribs on your magazine.

This may work. Might be worth a call to confirm OR just cut the magazine ribs out as mentioned above.

What size of UM Magazine works for the 30-378? Long XL: Magnum or the Long XL: Lapua?
