I have a model 700 BDL SS DM in 308 Win. Two of my four magazines have a similar problem. One of them is brand new and the other is like new. The problem is that when I go to chamber the LAST round in the magazine, the base of the cartridge Pops up out of the magazine after I move the bold forward just a half inch or so. The rear of the cartridge often ends up on top of the bolt and can fall free of the rifle if I do not catch it first. Remington told me to take the rifle and mags to a Rem. qualified gunsmith. Have any of you experienced this with your magazines? Is there a quick, cheap fix - like bending the lips of the magazine in or out? I'm willing to experiment a little before I spend the time and money at a gunsmith. Just thought I would ask around here first.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
