Help! DBM and AICS Mag Over-Insertion

[JAYgs8163]

Did you try to

It is an Accurate Mag magazine, but MDT makes an adjustable magazine latch that I'm hoping might be able to be made to fit my bottom metal.

And the last video I with the mag pressed all the way up until it stops and then trying to chamber a round

Did you try adjusting the tab on your Accurate mag? Can you post a picture of your bottom metal installed?

Hmmm I guess I didn't know I could adjust the tab on the mag

Here's some pics. Don't have any of the rear portion.

I'm not 100% positive you can adjust the tab as I have never had the issue you're having. I'm curious what action this stock was inletted for as I look at your above photos and the ejection port for the stock does not even come close to lining up to the ejection port of the action.

Did they send you a CIP bottom metal by mistake and you're using a non CIP mag?

I'm 98% the ejection port is standard 700 length and the Origin is a bit longer. I'm going to machine that back to match once I get everything sorted. And no it's a confirmed 3.715 bottom metal.

I have Grayboe M5 bottom metal on my 7 PRC and use Accurate AICS 3.85" (CIP) length mag with no problem. I would call Accurate Mag and make sure you have the correct size detachable magazine, I suspect you don't. Something's not right.

Is there any front to back play in the inserted magazine?

His bottom metal is not CIP length per his above reply to me.

That is the way it is.

when loaded, rounds in the mag will put downward pressure on the spring, holding the detachable mag down away from the bolt when the bolt is closed. When the bolt is opened, the weight of the loaded mag will keep it down unless you are cycling the bolt with the rifle help upside down.
If you are dragging the bolt across the top of the mag, you can add thin washers between the stock inlet and DBM bottom metal to slightly space it away from the action.
