10 FP question

[tuna921]

First off I am new to Savage and have only owned remingtons.Anyhow to get to the point I had a custom savage built and recieved it today it has a straight feed internal box mag. I didnt know you could only load it from the bottom So my question is there a way to modify it ? Last question is the take off accutrigger worth anything . Here is a crude pic and a test target that came with it

Thanks Jim

Looks nice! Who built it?

You might want to carry it in the case with the scope on top.

I think you could put a DBM on it.

It was built by APA formly Patriot Arms and I just rolled it over for a pic in my truck when I picked it up today. What DBM system would fit ?

Jeff at CDI Precision Gunworks makes bottom metal conversion kits that allow you to use 5 or 10 shot AICS magazines.

Glad to hear you have an outstanding rifle!! I'm curious though. When they provide the target photo's, do they also tell you what ammo or handload they used to get there?
