Issue w/ istall on Atlas worx Bottom metal and feeding bullets

[scott_r]

Wondering if anyone can give me some advice. I inletted my Tikka T3 stock and installed bottom metal to take AI style mags, I have a MDT 10 round 223 mag Im working with. The inlet seems to be right, everything fits and bolts down but Im having issues with the bolt being able to push the round into the chamber. Its as if the mag sits a bit low and the bolt sometimes just slides over the round in the mag. Is this an issue with the mag or do I need to bring the magwell up a small amount?

Cheers!!

It's probably not recessed/inletted to the proper depth.

Likely need to make the inlet deeper for proper feeding, but be careful and measure it out before cutting!
