Hi,
What do you put into a composite stock magazine well? Rem 700 SA.

For Rem factory stocks we use the factory magazine box, magazine spring, magazine follower and the Score-High Bench Rest Single Shot Follower at the top of the magazine.

Want to reduce weight and still have the Score-High Bench Rest Single Shot Follower at the top.

Are you using it as a single shot? If so, and if the rules allow (not certain, so check) I would remove the unneeded mag parts and acra-glas a single shot follower into the bottom of the receiver.

yes, single shot silhouette- good call on the epoxy. Any others want to chime in?

I did eliminate the factory magazine box and magazine follower, just left the spring and Score-High Bench Rest Single Shot Follower. It's just that the Single Shot Follower moves a bit. I asked Score-high to manufacture me a dozen that will fit the receivers mag box cut out. Waiting to hear back.
