Reply With QuoteThe 223 box is blocked in the rear. The bolt should have an extended front baffle to make it all work together. I will keep my eyes open for a retailer that can help you.
Trying to find a 223 mag box for a model 11 GL, PART #105682.
Internal mag staggered feed.
Savage, midway, Numwich etc all out of stock.
Need one to continue with my grendel build.
Can get a 308 one to sort of work with the feed side of things but thought I would try the 223 box.
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks, do you need the extended front baffle with the short action?Originally Posted by Robinhood
That is the way they came.
From searching for hours I have found that the extended baffle in 223/204 was for actions with the baffle groove on the right side of the action , my left hand 308 which I am converting to 6.5 Grendel has the baffle groove on the left side of the action.
The left hand 223/204 models had the Baffle groove on the right side so the conventional extended baffle could be used.
So I guess I will have grind it off to make it work.
I called savage and the guy said turn it around, I knew this wouldn't work and was not going to argue with him as I was calling international.
AS far as I can tell a extended baffle with a left groove was never made.
