1)Enter the serial number into the savage parts finder. Or
2) remove the stock. If the magazine stays on the action, it's a stagger feed. If it stays in the stock, it's center feed.
I am trying to help a friend determine if his 10FP (308 Win) with side bolt release has a center or stagger feed internal box mag? It was manufactured in 2008...I know one of you folks here that's smarter than me can help.
Thanks! CJ

Thank Hot!
Edit: How can you tell on the parts finder? Will it be obvious?
If it's a center feed, the magazine box will be MAG BOX SHORT STD (NFS) - PN: 105663
NFS stands for New Feed System (center feed)
See F900845 and G900845 for the difference between the two.

hahaha...so I was confused for good reason ....hahahah thanks for the help HOT!
A stagger feed magazine box will look like this one, as seen on the Savage parts finder.
A center feed magazine box will be displayed like the following:
Note the radical changes in the shape of the center feed magazine box, item 5 in the bottom photo.
