    Can I convert .308 into a .223??What do I need to change?


    Hi Guys,
    I have a 110 in a .308,and I bought it planning on turning it into a .223. Besides the barrel and bolt face,what else would I need to change?? Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks.

    If it's a 110 you will have to find a long action .223 bolt head [hard to find] or order an adaptor from Sharpshooter Supply.
    To keep it a repeater you'll need a .223 mag box and follower.

    223 mag box is basically blocked 308 box, so you can just block the box and use a 223 follower or even use a mag follower/spring from AR15 mag.
