Reply With QuoteFactory DBM or aftermarket?
I had a 110 tactical that was originally in 308. It came from the factory set up for AICS style mags. I converted it to 223 and got a 223 AICS style mag. It fits and works fine.
IF, you have Savages with DBM's in both 223 and 308 size cases, will your 223 DBM fit into the 308 size stock ?
MY reason for asking is I'm thinking about converting a 308 to a 223 and just want to make sure a 223 DBM will fit AND FUNCTION.

If factory style (3-5rd mags), yes - they all use the same bottom metal as long as you stay S/A or L/A. If the AICS style mags see above.

I used a MDT mag in mine. I just checked their site and they say the 223 mag will fit a COL of 2.550
