I have a Savage 10 FCP-SR in 308 and I want to convert it to use AICS magazines. Apparently CDI was the gold standard but the owner passed. The only two options I have found are Atlasworx (https://www.coretacsolutions.com/products_AW_SVG_SA_DBM_AL.htm) and PTG (http://pacifictoolandgauge.com/home/19933-detachable-mag-bottom-metal-kits-with-magazine.html). I haven't found reviews for Atlasworx and the reviews for PTG on Midwayusa are not great. I've seen some youtube videos that say accurate-mags (https://accurate-mag.com/bottom-metals/) are AICS pattern but their site doesn't mention it.

Are there any other options my Google-Fu has been to weak to find?
Edit:I've tried to order an Atlasworx bottom metal but I keep getting that its not available at this time.
Edit2: It may be available direct from their site (https://www.atlasworxs.com/collections/frontpage/products/atlasworxs-bottom-metal-dbm-savge-model-10-11-12).

An option is to go to a chassis style stock such as the Modular Driven Technologies (MDT) chassis.

It is but I really like my varmit-style stock.

I bought an Atlasworx for a Howa rifle and can say the quality and function was top notch. I can't speak for their Savage option, but I would not hesitate to get one. And it's pretty cheap compared to others.

Was there any difficulty with it shipping from Australia?

Nope...it's been a while but I don't recall any issues. Might have taken a couple weeks to get here.

The 110 tactical comes from the factory with AICS mags and bottom metal.
I actually like the factory bottom metal on my 110 tactical better than the CDI ones I have. The factory bottom metal is longer and has more of a mag well, where the CDI is very short and allows a little more movement and does not support the mag as well. It's also a little more tricky to insert the mag if you are not looking at it.
If I was to do it over again with the stocks I have, I would probably try my best to acquire and use the factory bottom metal.
