Seekins DBM

Are those even available yet? Sounds like they're still in 'beta'.
OAL with his proprietary mag is listed by Glen as 223-2.6”, .308 – 2.9”, Lapua 3.9”
(For the record, if it's anything like the AI mags, it'll actually be less than that for reliable feeding).
Also, "Lapua mags will work with ultra mag cases but the feed lips may need bent in a little bit"

For what action Ian? Can you get his other products as well, such as rings, bases perhaps AR15 lowers? I talked to Glenn on the phone awhile back and he offered to help me out on a project I had, nice guy. I went a different route but the fact is he offered to help.
Ed told me when I inquired that his V-bull wouldn't work with the RUM family of cartridges so thats why I moved on to seekins for my .338 Edge (in the process of being built) I phoned Shawn Carlock (figured he would know what works the best when it comes to .338 edge) and asked Wyatt or Seekins and he said Seekins hands down. He's the one that told me I could seat out to 3.910 and recomended 3.890 for reliable feeding
I have three of them waiting (on me
) to be coupled with stiller tac338 actions and chambered to 338LAI's. I Have talked with Glen a fair amount and they have been in full production for the last 6 months or so. Ian did the inlet for two of them with two of his tactical stocks.
Although the guns are not built yet my opinion is they are quality products. Without barrels on, I cycled a few rounds through the action and the mags worked flawless. I guess the true test will be when the guns are finished but so far I'm impressed.
I'd rather have a single shot before using an Vbull conversion w/AI mag and having to deep seat the 300gr bullets to get them to fit. Nothing against the Vbull system it would just be nice if the AI mags would allow more OAL.
