So I moved on and have an RAP, the plastic stock does have some problems feeding from the AR mag, so I've got an Mdt coming... they have one chassis model that will take the AR mags, it's what they recommended that I do. Hasn't arrived yet, but soon.
Now there is an Mdt "223" mag that fits in an AI magwell, could be however that the feed lips aren't set right for the Grr case, I don't know. It's a poly mag.
The RAP (using the AR mag) in this latest iteration has a change to its bolt, a cut-out in the lower part to allow a double stack feed to work. The earlier bolts were shaped on the bottom to feed from a single stack, aka the rotary mags.
My shooting buddy has a stock RAP in 6.5 Grendel. I’ve shot it several times and I like it. It was shooting just under MOA w/some 123 grain ELD handloads I had loaded for my AR.I’m sure would do better if I worked a load up that it liked.
I just don’t like the hollow Tupperware stock that comes w/the RAP.I was thinking about putting an MDT Oryx chassis on it. I seen them on Optics Planet for $399,liked it. I would just have find out if the oryx would accept AR mags.
When you get your RAP squared away,it would be cool if you shared some info. Chances are if I get the RAP I will probably need to get the same chassis system you got.
