I have to disagree. Now that I have looked, yes you will need to open up a .373" (223) bolt head or get a custom one built. The AXIS uses the same SA bolt heads as the 10-16 series and also uses the same CF mag bodies and followers. Other than the obvious crappy trigger (which could be upgraded) and fewer choices for aftermarket stocks, I see no reason not to do it in an AXIS.
