[QUOTE="QuietTexan, post: 2782477, member: 116181"] Put it in a chassis or a stock with bottom metal that can take the AICS mag, and run it. AICS mags are centerfeed, and if the bottom metal puts them in the correct place the bolt will strip a round out. AW mags are the double stacks mags that require the feed rails to be wider/absent. I was 95% about this... so I just went over, took the 5.56 AICS mag out of my 223 and put it into my 243, and it cycles fine. So I'm 100% sure now. Factory Rem 700 short action with the 308 bolt stripped 223 rounds correctly out of an an AICS mag. [/QUOTE]
