Gunsmithing longer magazine

[badshooter]

My 6mm VLS needs a longer mag box to hold the bullets I load. The max that will fit in there now is 2.830. I need to get around 2.990 if possible. Is there an option to fix this. I saw some internal mags like this one http://www.midwayusa.com/viewProduct/?productNumber=993148

Will this work and how hard is the modification to the action?

Re: longer magazine

The mag well opening in the reciever has to be opened up to fit the bigger mag box , if you have a mill its not a problem at all but if you try it with a dremal tool it'll take longer and of course it won't be as pretty. I've seen a few done by had that worked fine and you could never tell it wasen't professionaly done unless you pulled the action from the stock.

A reasonable smith shoulden't charge that much to do this job , you do have to modify the bolt stop also but its a simple task on the mill or even with a file.
