Looking for a DBM setup in the M5 inlet for my Bergara B14 Sierra.  I want something robust.  I always thought that Badger was the benchmark but have recently seen MDTs Precision DBM and thought it looked pretty solid as well.  Anybody have any experience with the MDT?

I have a savage in an MDT chassis.  Never had any issues with the chassis or the mags, but i also don't take it into war zones or anything.

I’m using Hawkins Precision and it’s held up well for PRS use.

Lots of good options out there.  Just pick the features you want and buy.

Ill throw APA in the ring as well.

Hawkins here.  Love their bottom metal and scope rings/mounts.

I've got two rifles with Badger M5.  No problems.

Grayops just released a new bottom metal.  No experience with it but their products that I have used are top notch.

Hawkins on a couple rifles, pretty nice.  The mdt dbm, had one but sold that stock.  It was nice, comparable quality to Hawkins and badger.  Mdt uses an adjustable height mag release, very nice for setting mag height on br based or aw mags.  Alot easier than taking apart mag release to file release to proper height.

Athena Precision is great and a bit cheaper than the others.
