Re: Show us your bolt guns
I don't have any Allha mags yet, but own several of the Ruger plastic mags in 5 and 10 round capacity. I prefer them to the steel OEM mags for the reasons you state. The reason I'm intrigued by the Alpaha mags is A) there are staggered column like the plastic mags and are therefore shorter like the plastic mags, B) they are AICS pattern mags just like the OEM mags, and I'm about to convert my Remington 700 (pictured in the OP) to a DBM system; so my magazines would then be interchangeable between both rifles.

Re: Show us your bolt guns
I've had a few Mosin-Nagants but the corrosive primers took their toll on the barrels. I also had a sweet Swedish Mauser that still is a sentimental favorite. But I figured out later that stainless steel is the sportman's friend so I bought one of the earliest releases of the Remington 700 Sendero in 7mm Rem Mag. It's a 26" fluted stainless barrel, custom trigger at 2.5lbs, Harris bipod and a Burris scope. My best 10 shot group is 3/8" with my own reloads. It's a very good rifle.
If I bought a replacement or supplement, it would be all custom and one of the 6mm or 6.5 Lapua or Creedmore calibers.

My Remington 700 ADL in .270 Win. 22" barrel with a Simmons 8 point 3x9-50. Dad bought it for me for my 16th birthday. It's not pretty but it's a good deer rifle. Then my Savage 93r17.17 HMR 21" barrel Leupold vx-1 3x9-40 and it will drive tacks. Traded an uberti replica baby dragoon for the Savage, worked out to a good deal, I wasn't interested in black powder.

I made my Gunsite Scout suppressor capable:
