    Bottom Metal for Bottom Bolt Release Rifle


    After much researching, it appears PTG is about the only option for bottom metal on a rifle with a bottom bolt release.......if that's incorrect, I'd like to be informed of other options. If PTG is the one, I wondered if folks had good experience with the product? I'm looking to use this bottom metal in a Bell/Carlson stock.

    Thanks
    Joe

    I bought a synthetic/plastic bottom "metal" from E. Arthur Brown to fit the Boyd's stock I added to my M11 short-action bottom bolt release.

    Call Savage Arms directly to order metal bottom parts. You need a metal BBR trigger guard, DBM frame assembly and magazine bottom cap. Dark Eagle makes a 10-round magazine that fits into Savage OEM metal DBM frame assembly.

    Thanks....unfortunately, I owe Savage a call for another reason. Took the action from the stock to adjust the trigger.....realized, it fires when closing the bolt no matter how "heavy" you set the trigger. The machining at the sear looks pretty rough (or someone else messed with it)....but I bought it new yesterday

    GunShack.com has the metal triggerguard. I got mine from them (no bottom metal, though).
