10CL .243 to .223 Conversion

I just obtained a 10CL J series .243. I have been working on a project to Pillar bed the action. I want to convert this side button detacable Magazine rifle to .223. I know I need a barrel and a new bolt head. Is there a different magazine available or can I convert the .243 detachable magazine to hold .223 and feed properly. Right now the .223 shells won't stay in the magazine because the lips are too wide.

Is there anything I should be aware of or advice?

Thanks,

You need a new magazine.

Do you know if there is a Magazine made for the 10c that is designed for the .223? If so where can I get one?

Thanks,
