I want to get a DBM to go along with a Pacific Tool & Gage DBM for my Remington 700 Long Range in 300WM.

This gun has a B&C M40 stock & inletting will be required. I am thinking about getting the CIP length (3.85 COAL). If I get this length, will any action modifications be required? I realize that the stock barrel is not throated to take advantage of such a long COAL, but eventually the barrel will be replaced. PT&G only offer the CIP length in the "stealth" configuration. I prefer the flush mount military, but this is not that big of a deal.

Any other considerations that I am missing?

I've got a 700 with a PT&G Stealth DBM. Because I load so long I did have to notch the feed ramp just a bit, it feeds very nicely now, but not necessarily required unless you load long.
 
Id look at CDI. They can inlet the stock, might still inlet for free when you purchase DBM from them. You may need to put a dimple in the feed ramp. Id check with CDI, they could probably do that also

CDI is a little more expensive - are they better quality than PTG?
 
Little more expensive but its one stop shop. Probably gona cost you around $100 just to send your stock out to be inlet. IMO yes, CDI is much better quality. Much much better anodizing and machining, WAY better customer service.
