10 FCP .308 Magazine Options

[jgault]

Hi Folks!

New here and not sure of navigating my way around!

I have a Savage 10 FCP-HS Precision in .308, and was wondering what options I have in terms of magazines which will fit and where I can buy them. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks much!:rolleyes:

Try accuracy international. See if they have them

Thanks! Any higher capacity options?

AICS (accuracy international) magazines are NOT for the 10 FCP-HS.

Savage Short action magazines is what you want. Savage makes a 10 round magazine as well.

Thanks Zero333! The Tombstone site looks good. I just wish Magpul or someone made a reliable version cheaper as I'm retired and living on a limited income, but as usual, I guess you get what you pay for! Thanks for the help!

Can I ask what bottom metal you ended up going with? Was any inletting necessary? Thanks.

[eyeman]

Accuracy international make the bottom metal in the pic. No in letting was needed. I did need to cut the action screws that came with the bottom metal for a good fit

I personally can't stand the single stack AICS mags...just too damn long...

The correct site is accurate-Mag.com. Sorry for the error

[Zero333]

Accurate Mag
PTG
CDI

all make bottom metal for AICS pattern magazines.

For short actions you have to specify the action screw spacing (4.27" or 4.40")

Inletting should not be a problem with factory stocks.

Thanks for the info, might have to break down and purchase this. I'm not a fan of the proprietary Savage mags on the new Savage 10s.

Another question for you, have you tried Magpul P-Mags with the AI bottom metal? From my understanding, the fit between AICS mags can vary, some being "loose" or causing feeding issues. I personally am a fan of the polymer style magazines and would prefer that over a metal AI/AICS mag. Thanks for any input.

[eyeman]

Yes I have and they feed fine. You may have to fool with the magazine with a file to get it to feed correctly, but I did it and no problems.

Magpul Pmag 10 round 7.62 AC is the correct magazine for AICS pattern bottom metals.
