Christensen Arms Short Action Magnum Ass'Y W/ Alumn Floorplate
The Christensen Arms Short Action Magnum bottom metal assembly is built to replace worn or damaged stock hardware on short magnum actions using Remington 700 footprint or standard Christensen Arms compatible stocks. This aluminum floorplate assembly handles the daily punishment of field hunting and range sessions with the rigidity and weight savings that modern rifle builders and shooters expect.
Machined from 6061 aircraft-grade aluminum, this assembly combines strength with a refined aesthetic that complements modern tactical and hunting builds. The hard coat Type III anodize finish resists corrosion and handling wear, keeping your rifle's foundation looking sharp through seasons of use. Whether you're rebuilding a rifle action or replacing damaged bottom metal, this assembly ensures reliable magazine retention and smooth operation.
The kit comes complete with the internal magazine spring, follower, and short magnum standard magazine box, so you have everything needed to get your action running. The hinged or carbon fiber FFT floor plate options let you choose the release mechanism that fits your workflow—whether you prefer traditional hinged access or the speed of a tactical lever-release design.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this bottom metal fit my Remington 700 magnum action?
This assembly is designed for short magnum actions with Remington 700 footprint compatibility. Confirm your action type before ordering, as it is not universal across all 700 variants.
What's included in this assembly kit?
The kit includes the aluminum bottom metal body, internal magazine box, magazine spring, follower, and your choice of hinged or carbon fiber FFT floor plate.
Can I choose between hinged and FFT floor plate styles?
Yes, the assembly is available with either a traditional hinged floor plate or a carbon fiber FFT (fast floor plate tool) release mechanism. Select based on your preference for reload speed and handling.
Why aluminum instead of steel bottom metal?
Christensen's 6061 aircraft-grade aluminum offers excellent strength-to-weight performance while resisting corrosion. The hard coat Type III anodize finish provides durability comparable to traditional steel, with the benefit of reduced overall rifle weight.
