shopgun Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 I'm thinking about changing my. 700 in 7mm-08 to the H-S detatch mag system. Does anyone have any recent experiance with these? I'm particularly interested in the 10 rnd mag to use connected for MOR.any reliability issues with these? thanks , Jim Shema Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wakal Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 Had one, sold it. WAAAAAY too expensive. Try the Kwik Klip instead: http://www.outdoorbuyer.net/cab/0024317226539a.htm Liota has a "Klip" on her PSS 700 in .300 Winmag; it works just fine Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Dunn Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 I have one and don't like it. It's on Rem 700 PSS, I got it for MOR type matches. I specifically don't like that the mag doesn't drop free, that the release is inside the trigger guard, that the release is small and difficult for me to operate quickly. I think it would be fine on a hunting rifle, if for some reason you wanted a detachable mag on a hunting gun. I think the best reloads in MOR are currently given by the Tubb 2000 (AR-15 like mag release) or the Accuracy International Stock/Mag combo.

BillL223 Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 I added the H-S version to my Remington LTR and it works fine. Shot a local fun match yesterday, mag changes went fine, fixed 10X scope doesn't cut it for 15-20 yard run and gun. I knew that but wanted to try it for fun. Forget the 10 round mag. MOR rules allow only 5 rounds in the gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Dunn Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 Respectfully, do not forget the 10 round mags. The extra length works as a good handle, allows the possibility of clamping two mags together, and lets you play other games (sniper type matches) a little easier. If I weren't so lazy I'd break out the timer and time a few reloads with the HS and the Tubb, but the difference (for me) will probably be at least a second longer with the HS. To me, that's just too much time to give up...but I've never claimed to be entirely sane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chriss Grube Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 If you haven't bought it don't if you want to make fast mag changes. Had one and sold it off. Switched to an AICS. Much faster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokshwn Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 I personally went with the AICS for my Rem 700 based on advice that I received here and on a few other boards. Just last week I had the chance to use the HS version. Although the HS precision stuff is obviously high quality, it simply doesn't function as quickly or easily as the AICS. Hope this helps, Craig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shopgun Posted January 12, 2005 Author Share Posted January 12, 2005 Thanks for the input. I was hoping not to have to trash a perfectly good H S stock. But, on the other hand, more toys is GOOD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bgary Posted January 12, 2005 Share Posted January 12, 2005 But, on the other hand, more toys is GOOD Jeez, tell me about it. I bought an AICS stock last month, thinking I would put it under my PSS. Then, the more I thought about it, the PSS is a *really* sweet shooter, and I really didn't want to mess with something that wasn't broken... so I talked myself into buying a *second* PSS to put in the AICS stock. Of course, that means I'm gonna have to buy another scope, etc, etc. Bruce (if my wife opens the Visa bill this month, there will be two really nice rifles in an estate sale next month. Oh, and a brand-new recently-vacated perfectly good HS stock, too ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
