Legacy Sports Int’l. has announced its offering of detachable box magazine kits for Howa 1500 and Remington 700 BDL rifles—Ammo Boost. By simply replacing the action’s “bottom metal,” at-home gunsmiths and DIYers can easily upgrade from factory-configured closed-box or blind magazines to American-made detachable-box units through a simple conversion process.

Affordable, easy and practical, the Legacy Sports Int’l. Ammo Boost kits support a variety of market options, such as the Howa 1500 and Remington 700 BDL, long- or short-action configurations. In addition, Ammo Boost kit fits Weatherby Vanguard rifles, as well as Smith & Wesson 1500 and Mossberg 1500 bolt-action rifles. Kits will accommodate both standard and magnum chamberings, and are available for either five- or 10-round configurations. Supplementary magazines may be purchased separately.

MSRP starts at $69 for the complete kit, and installation time is just minutes. Legacy Sports Int’l. includes a new polymer floorplate with each American-made unit. An extended magazine release is ahead of the magazine well and articulates forward to release. Some applications may require minor inlet fitting.
