IIRC, there is/was a 700DM (detachable magazine) model.
maybe it was the PSS model, but I know there was a DM model 700 of some sort. I also seem to recall there being some aftermarket mod for M14 mags.... it was costly as I recall so I opted not to do it. |

The 700 is perfectly fine right out of the Box.
If you want rapid fire or a high cap maybe you should look into buying an M1A/FAL. JerrY |

Doesn't the 700 LTR use a detachable box magazine? If not, there're still beaucoup Model 700 DMs out there in various configurations to suit your needs.

The model 700 Police in 308 has a detachable mag... black synthetic stock, 24" blued barrel... if it's too long for you have it cut off and recrowned.

My wife's M-700 SA "Mountain Rifle" is a "DM" as well. Bought last year, her's has a wood stock, but we saw one in SS & Synthetic while we were looking. |

You will be disappointed in the DM Rem. They did make an LTR DM. They have discontinued them all. The 700 was designed around a floorplate. The magazine conversion was a half hearted effort at a non-existant problem and were poorly done. The mags are cheap junk and 75% of them will not seat and or feed. Save your money.
Get a semi auto or an AI if you have to have a box feed. Just my 2 |

the DM PSS & LTR have been discontinued due to feeding problems a good freind of mine has a DM LTR & after one trip back to the factory it's funstioned fine since it is a tack driver with 168gr BTHP's www.remingtonle.com I think Savage may have something with a DM www.savagearms.com I think Robar makes cu$$tom 308 REM700's that ustilize M14 mags |

From all the research I've done: Remington DID produce a DM modle of the LTR and PSS. They are discontinued due to quality issues. some work great, others really sucked untill fixed, others never worked. (mags fall out, etc). Now, HS-Precision mages a DM for the Rem. 700 series, that I hear is excellent: http://www.hsprecision.com/price_list_accessories.htm
