I'd greatly appreciate any recommendations for aftermarket magazines that are known to work well with the Savage Model 12 LRP in 6.5 Creedmoor. I'm looking for 10-rounders here.

Got the rifle set up recently and some custom ammo (don't have time to learn to handload), and, wow, this rifle is a shooter!

I can highly reccomend the 10 round magazines from Dan at Dark Eagle Customs (http://www.darkeaglecustom.com/products.shtml) along with their extended mag release lever. I've run my LRP in .260Rem in three local tactical matches and had ZERO issues with feeding or seating a magazine. Dan is a really nice guy to deal with as well.

Dark Eagle Customs out of NY makes excellent aftermarket 10 round magazines for the LRP rifles. I've run two of Dan's magazines in three tactical matches with a fair amount of rapid bolt manipulation and had ZERO feed issues! Their extended magazine release is also excellent.

Newsshooter,
The Darkeagle Savage 10 round extended mag, will that work on my Savage model 16 Creedmoor with DBM??? It looks like they added a bottom to the DBM.

It should work if its the same dbm as the LRP. I believe they both take a savage magazine and modify it. Simple and works well

Looks the same to me, Dan at Darkeagle was great to work with, he sent me one to try just to make sure it would work.
