    Stsggerfeed LA mag used for SA cartridges


    I am wanting to make my LA 110 30-06 into a switch barrel for a SA cartridge (probably 308 based caliber). What mods do I have to make to the LA box mag when using the SA cartridges if any and how easy can they be changed back and forth? Would I be better off just getting a second box mag that was made for a SA cartridge in a LA?

    There really should'nt be a problem. I have built .243 and .308 on long actions; they feed fine from LA internal magazine.

    Yep, I've had very good luck with LA mag boxes. Maybe you'll need to tweek the feed lips a bit.

    Worked great for me several times so far. Load 'em, slide 'em to the back, and go shoot.

    Same here, I've done a 6.5 creedmoor and a 308 off an old 270 action... no feed issues just more room for custom loads
