We've all seen the conversion from a blind or removable floorplate to a M14 mag in a .308.

Have any of you seen anything similar for 30-06 or other long action ?

I see Cabela's and others carry a conversion made by Kwik Klip

This conversion gets mixed reviews, mostly positive. The kit runs $80 and comes with one 10 rnd and one 4 rnd mag. Install sound pretty easy, couple screws, maybe some minor fitting depending upon your specific stock.

The mags cost way too much to seriously consider this a viable alternative. 10 rnd mags are $35 each and are described as less than robust.

M14 mags are easy to find, but as you know, 30-06 they aren't.

Any known options ?
