MDT Medium-Action Magazine — 3 Rounds | .30-06 Springfield / 6.5x55 Swedish | Black Nitride Steel | Model 105879-BLK (105879BLK) | UPC 682157407804
Classic long-action ballistics in a compact, hunt-ready footprint. The MDT 3-Round Medium-Action Magazine (Model 105879-BLK / 105879BLK, UPC 682157407804) is purpose-built for .30-06 Springfield and 6.5x55 Swedish cartridges in rifles that use AICS Medium (MED/XM)–length magazines. Constructed from heat-treated steel with a black nitride finish, this low-profile mag uses tuned internal geometry and a smooth, low-friction follower to deliver reliable, jam-free feeding from cold bore to last light—without the bulk of higher-capacity magazines.

Why This MDT MED Magazine Stands Out
Hunt-Optimized 3-Round Profile
A compact body stays flush and snag-free in blinds, on tripods, and when crawling into position—while keeping feeding 100% dependable.
Tuned for .30-06 / 6.5x55
Feed-lip angles and follower height are engineered for long-ogive bullets and classic case geometry, promoting positive bolt pick-up and smooth chambering.
Black Nitride Steel Durability
The nitrided finish enhances corrosion and wear resistance while preserving feed-lip integrity that polymer or thin metal bodies can lose over time.
MED/XM Length Advantage
The AICS Medium format shortens overall mag height versus traditional long-action cuts, improving clearance over bags and natural terrain—with no compromise in feed reliability.
Ideal Use Cases
Big-Game Hunting: Low-snag profile for prone or kneeling shots; capacity aligns with many regional rules.
Backcountry & Predator: Lightweight footprint and quiet handling, built to shrug off dust, rain, and cold.
Range, Zero & Load Development: Consistent stack and presentation for dope building and seating-depth testing.
Fit & Compatibility Notes
Fits: Chassis and bottom metals that explicitly specify AICS Medium (MED/XM) magazines for .30-06 / 6.5x55.
Does Not Fit: AICS Short Action (.308 length) or Long Action (3.560"/3.715"/3.850") mag wells.
COAL Considerations: Verify your overall length (COAL) and bullet ogive/tip shape with the internal mag length—especially with long, high-BC hunting bullets.
Receiver/Chassis Variance: Set action and bottom-metal torque to manufacturer spec to maintain optimal mag-catch height and feed angle.

Pro Tips for Best Performance
Confirm the Pattern First: MED/XM magazines are unique—double-check your action/chassis documentation before ordering.
Cycle Dummy Rounds: Validate COAL and ogive clearance with your chosen bullet profile prior to live fire.
Keep It Clean: Wipe feed lips and follower periodically; a light dry-film lube helps in dusty environments.
Load to the Rear: Press each round firmly to the rear wall for consistent stack geometry and smoother feeding.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will this work in my standard AICS long-action chassis?
A: Only if your chassis uses the AICS Medium (MED/XM) mag length. Traditional long-action cuts (3.560"/3.715"/3.850") require different magazines.
Q: Polymer or steel?
A: Steel, chosen for feed-lip stability and longevity—especially valuable with heavier recoil cartridges like .30-06.
Q: Can I use it with other .30-06-family cartridges?
A: Many are dimensionally similar, but always function-test your specific cartridge and seating depth for reliable feeding.
Q: Is 3 rounds enough for hunting?
A: Yes—three provides a sleek footprint and complies with many capacity rules while keeping a fast follow-up on tap.
