Magazine Follower Question

Have an older REM Mod 722 in 222 Rem. The action is long for that cartridge and has a spacer ahead of the follower.

The spacer limits the COL that is possible. Most all bullets shoot WAY better when seated longer than will work in the mag.

I would suppose that a 721 in 222 Mag doesn't have the shorter follower and spacer.

Any suggestions.

I'll try some things but if things are normal my cobble jobs won't work out.

Maybe, as I think about it, a follower from a M700 223 may well work.

Thanks for listening
