[QUOTE="P7M13, post: 2067430, member: 94154"] Good find! From their website, you want the following mag: Order the red one. Reason why - the mags all have the same external dimensions. There's a slight difference to the bend of the feed lips, but the 30-06 and 300WM have "buffer" sleeves and a shortened follower that limit the length of the bullet and keep the cartridge from moving forward on recoil. This limits your loaded cartridge length. So, if you're never going to load longer than a 300WM SAAMI spec cartridge, order a 300WM mag. Otherwise, get the 338LM one. Edit to add: I have a 300WM AICS pattern from PMAG. Wouldn't buy a plastic one again..... [/QUOTE]
