Hi Gang. I had a friend convert a Remington 700BDL with a floor plate magazine into a clip system. He loves it. I wish my Weatherby had the same.
Anybody know of a kit to do this? Where can I get my hands on one?
Brownells No, Numrich No,

  None available.
  Weatherby never made, or commissioned anyone to do so. Some reasons.
  Generally not accepted(very low sales) in bolt action rifles. Heard recently Remington is discontinuing them also.
  Magsazines often are dropped, and with a full magazine of magnum ammo it's easier to damage both the mag, and the heavier ammo.
  On larger magnum cartridges the latch mechanism must be stronger. that adds cost.
  Box magazines do get a receiver dirtier.
  
  Happy Bullet Holes!
