Just bought a varmint action and Criterion barrel for a build...
Is there any difference in the DBM for this action compared to model 10's with the DBM?
Trying to find a stock with correct inletting (but looks like I might have to DIY)...

Got the screw spacing diff...already have one staggered, and one centerfeed rifle. Question is only about the mag itself. Same as that on, say, the 10 FCP-K?

Confirmed it's the same DBM inletting...but dayum, no one makes a laminated stock for them-only the higher end McM and Manners. Guess I'll finish the pattern stock I started and make my own.

Boyds stocks there in letting for the new dBm setup. I have one on the way from them for a 4.4" dBm rig.

I used a Choate tactical for the same build...couldn't be happier. DBM fit perfectly.

Thanks. Have one in a Choate tactical now, like the stock but wanted something different.
Boyds doesn't list an option for short action, top bolt release, dbm, and bull barrel-only factory barrel....
I make semi-custom stocks, didn't realize there was a lack of affordable choices here, I think there might be some demand for this...

you can sand the barrel channel to fit the barrel
