Edge 308 caliber change

[devildogandboy]

i want to change my Edge 308win to 223rem, i know the barrel i have will work from what i have read, i believe a 223 bolt head from midway will solve that part, but what about the mag? do i just get a new mag ffor the 223 caliber edge and that's it?
any advice would help. thank you. ???

What you've read is wrong! You need a new barrel.

yes, i know i need another barrel and have it in the 223 caliber. i know i need a .378 bolt head.
what i would like to know so it feeds rounds properly, can i just buy a mag for 223 Edge-Axis and that's it?
thanks!

Make sure you buy the bolt head for an axis/edge and not a 10/110.

PMed you.

The bolt head is a standard short action part. (i.e. 10,12, 14, 16)
