Strayhorn, talked with Norm Chandler already, they will only do the 700 not the 7. As he explained it, it isn't really to be used for stripperclips, Its for the Ross scope mount, there is a lug on the underside of the mount that slots into the receiver to prevent the mount from shifting under recoil. I have spoken with Mr Chandler a time or two, a friend has two of his rifles, and he couldnt think of anyone when I last asked him. I will check out Mr Cloward and see what he has to say, I definately want it done right the first time. I like the scout concept but I would prefer loading by stripper clips over a detachable mag.
