I’m thinking about moving a large ring Mauser action to a bench rest type stock, and also want the ability to use box mags. I’d like to do it without spending a small fortune.
Considering the prices for actual bench rest chassis (even sounds expensive) the Archangel seems to be a good entry level option. On paper they seem like a good option, but I’d like to hear some real world opinions on them.
Also unsure about what is involved in this thing called “bottom metal”
I suppose what is meant by ‘bottom metal’ is that part that contains the magazine and spring is then replaced with a removable mag system with this chassis. I can bring it to the Stafford meet if you’d like to check it out.
I put one on my Mini 14 Target. Along with the Harris BiPod it looks like the cats meow. Fit really good too. Natchez had them cheap along with Optics Planet. Still havent shot it yet.
