Anyone using Alpha Mags lately?
-
I have 2 of the .308 Alphas I bought some time ago. Anyone buy/use any recently?
-
I bought some type 2's a few years ago. They are not bad, but they are not aics either. I needed the extra OAL that the type 2 offered.
-
Triple D, I bought some a few years ago also. It took forever before they sent my order out, I was concerned that I was not going to receive them. I am curious if they have gotten any better in the service dept. I like the #2 for the same reason.

How much extra COAL do you get from those mags? I was seriously wondering just today if I went to a DBM can I gain COAL.

With the Alpha type 1 you can load out to 2.920 and with the type 2, 2.965

You can load long...but if you have a factory Remington action you will also need to mill out the bottom of the receiver to allow for longer rounds. It is not a big deal and can be done in about 10 min with a dremel, but must be done non-the-less.
I have two extra type 2's I no longer use and would sell or trade if someone were interested.

I'll keep that in mind. I've been thinking of switching to a different stock and if I do, I'll most likely go to a PTG DBM.
