I purchased a Waters magazine out of Australia. It allows a COL about 1/4" longer than the factory magazine. It's too bad that they don't make a five shot magazine that is closer to fitting flush though.

use the .308 magazine. thats what i do, i just put some aluminum tape on the lips to make it a bit more narrow

I've looked at those waters ones so I'd be goog to go with one? Thanks good to know

I've tried them in my 22-250 / 308 mag and they pop up and won't feed into chamber. So maybe I'll try what you said and see it works too thanks

Ok and what do I need for bottom metal if I go this route? Can I use it with new bottom metal on my synthetic stock? Are they direct fit? Sorry just not to familiar with tikka mag kits or what's out there

So for now I modded my 223 mag with a piece of poly as I had a block here. I cut it all for a press fit and added a piece with industrial glue to rear of feed guide to keep it moving up and down straight with spring. Nice and lite and feeds great. 75 gr amax bullets shown
