Converting a Rem M700 223 to magazine
What's the options? are they all AI compatible.
I have an xlr on the 243, same mag as a 308. What's the options for a wood stock in 223?

BobsterThe Remington XLR is a hair removal device. Are you sure you have your terms right? Sell the .243 and buy a .223 configured as you want it. You will save hundreds of $'s with no frustrations.
Looking for bottom metal and mag. for a wood stock M700 in 223.
Stocky has the M5, any other worth looking at???

sliversCDI is probably a better choice. Most, if not all, bottom metal that uses detatchable mags will require inletting. I wouldn't expect "drop-in".
I have a Badger DBM I'd make you a deal on. Not sure what it would take to put in wood though.

Big Wonderful WyomingThere are about 10 AICS magazine bottom metal dudes now.
All are fine.
Badger, Surgeon and Manners are the best.
I'd personally just buy a X-ray chassis stock from KRG and forget about dealing with inletting a fiberglass stock to fit a AICS bottom metal.
They are $600.
Most good AICS systems are $250-350.
You are half way there.

The Bader and the CDI use the same inlet. The CDI is $100+ lower in price than the Badger, and having them side by side NO difference in appearance or quality can be detected.
