In need of KRG Bravo chassis guidance

[baserigger]

Hi there,
First post here, but in desperate need of guidance.
Been outta the shooting loop for about 15 years, and with my recent retirement from work, it’s time to get back into the shooting sports.
I come from a strong full auto and AR platform background, but want to expand my bolt gun horizons.
My question for the pro’s…..
I have a Remington 700 Police 308 with a 26” heavy barrel. It’s all stock with no mods. It’s ADL with a hinged opening plate on the bottom for easy unloading that engages with a small button on the trigger guard.
I want to swap the factory stock/chassis out for a KRG Bravo stock, but not sure if it’ll work since my rifle doesn’t use mags, and the Bravo is set up for mags.
Can I just remove the hinged plate on the bottom and install the Bravo….. then add a mag? Or will this idea need a lot of custom fitting to make it work. Hope my question makes sense and isn’t too scatterbrained. I’ll enclose a few pics of the bottom of the rifle just in case I’m not clear with my description.
Thanks in advance for any help

No custom fitting, most likely. You do what you say, remove the barreled action and screw it into the Bravo.

You have to buy an AICS pattern mag, obviously. I use the brand Accurate Mag.

Edit: KRG supplies the action screws. You don’t reuse the ones you already have. And their front action screw is captive, so you can’t lose it!

To fit your barreled action to the Bravo is two screws.
Slap in an AICS mag and you're good.



BTW, that HS stock is a BDL setup, not ADL.

ADL is a blind magazine without floor plate.

Your current set up is a stock with bdl as explained.
The bravo is a chassis and it’s got the bottom metal integral to the chassis so there is nothing to swap over besides your barreled action.

^What these guys said. Easy as pie.

This is my 700 LA in a bravo. Add mag of your choice and roll with it. The magpul aics mags work pretty good.

The only thing I don't like about my bravo is it's not a whiskey3. Yet.

I tried a Whiskey -- didn't like it. It felt like the butt / pistol grip style got in the way of functioning the bolt.

Try both for your preference.

Bravo is the easy button.
