Description
The MDT Hunting Bottom Metal in the Badger profile is built for hunters who want the feeding reliability and magazine flexibility of a precision chassis system without the bulk or snag points that come with it. It fits Remington 700 short-action rifles and accepts AICS-pattern magazines, which means you can run whatever capacity the hunt or the terrain demands rather than being locked into a single stack or proprietary feed system.
The integrated magazine release lock addresses a real-world problem: a detachable magazine that drops at the wrong moment costs you the shot and possibly the animal. MDT builds in adjustable tension on that lock so you can dial the retention to your preference rather than accepting a factory setting that may be too light or too stiff for your gloves or your grip.
The hardware is corrosion-resistant throughout, which matters when a hunt means rain, river crossings, or temperature swings that condense moisture on metal. The profile is deliberately low-snag, so it moves cleanly through brush and out of a pack without hanging up on straps or branches. That geometry is a deliberate trade-off: a hunting bottom metal prioritizes a clean external profile over the extended surfaces a benchrest shooter might want for positional work.
This is a drop-in upgrade for hunters already running a Remington 700 short-action in a compatible stock who want detachable magazine capability with a purpose-built feed system — not a range accessory adapted to field use.
