I can't answer your question as I don't own any DBMs. Maybe "Sharpshooter" will chime in, he will know.
I have a .308 Savage short action with DBM and i want to convert it to .223 with DBM. I know the bolt head/barrel must change. I plan to buy new .223 mags but will they fit the SA ? IS the .223 magazine opening the same size as the 308 with just the feed lips smaller for the smaller cartridge ? are there any 9 or 10 rd mags for .223 Savage yet ? help

I don't know about the older dbm guns but the new ones should fit just the same. The only difference is the feed lips on the top of the mag. If I am wrong, I'm sure someone will correct me.
16-223, 10 223, 10 FCP 308, 111 30-06, 110 30-06, 111 6.5x55, 112 338-06/6mm Rem, 110 300 WinMag,
The 223 mag has a filler in the back
this is the new DBM i want to convert
i have a 223 bolt head i would trade for your 308 bolt head. Pm me if you are interested.
The bottom metal is the same on sa the mags fit from 223 or 308 the 223 just has a space in the back
sinman
so I have the bottom metal for the 308 and I will buy the .223 mags but there will just be a space in the back of the mag correct ? so all i need is a .223 bolt head, .223 mags and barrel, sweeet
Thanks guys
anyone know of a 9 or 10 round magazine for a .223 savage ? anyone ever try to make an Remington SA Bottom metal and AI mags fit a savage, just saying
There won't be a space that is taken up internally in the mag, it will look like the other mag
