AICS .308/7.62mm Short Action Rifle Magazines — Accuracy International Chassis System Compatible
SKU: 100005887 • Caliber: .308 Winchester / 7.62×51 NATO • Platform: Short Action • Pattern: AICS (Accuracy International Chassis System)
Feed your precision rifle with the industry’s benchmark magazine pattern. AICS .308/7.62 Short Action Rifle Magazines deliver rock-solid reliability and repeatable cartridge presentation for bolt guns running the Accuracy International Chassis System or other AICS-compatible bottom metals. Trusted by competitors, hunters, and precision professionals, these mags are built for harsh conditions, smooth top-loading, and consistent feeding so you can focus on the shot—not your gear.
Why These AICS Magazines Stand Out
Proven AICS Pattern: The gold standard for short-action .308/7.62 rifles; widely supported across today’s leading chassis and stocks.
Reliable Feeding Geometry: Tuned feed lips and follower deliver consistent, nose-up presentation for reliable chambering—shot after shot.
Rugged Construction: Heavy-duty metal body and corrosion-resistant finish shrug off weather, dust, and rough handling at the match or in the field.
Anti-Tilt Follower & Positive Spring Tension: Keeps cartridges level to reduce stack bind and erratic feeding.
Competition & Field Ready: Designed for smooth insertion, secure lock-up, and dependable drop-free function in clean systems.
Common Capacities: Typically available in 5-round (flush/low profile for prone hunting) and 10-round (match/PRS) options. Verify the capacity included with SKU 100005887 in the product listing.

Action Length: Short Action
Interface: AICS magazine well (Accuracy International Chassis System)
Body: Stout metal construction with protective finish

Spring: Temperature-resistant steel spring for consistent pressure
Floorplate: Robust base design for durability and easier maintenance

Compatibility (Examples)
Chassis/Stocks: Accuracy International, MDT, KRG, XLR, Seekins, MPA, and many other AICS-cut systems.
Bottom Metals: AICS-pattern DBM kits from popular manufacturers for Remington 700 and similar footprints.
Not for AR-10/SR-25: These are bolt-action AICS magazines and not compatible with AR-10/SR-25/LR-308 pattern semi-auto rifles.
Fitment Tip: Magazine fit can vary with inlet cut, action footprint, and DBM model. If you’re running extended COAL handloads or wildcats, verify internal length and follower compatibility before purchase.
Real-World Advantages
Consistency at Distance: Repeatable stack height and feed angle help preserve the rifle’s rhythm for faster follow-up shots and fewer stoppages.
Match-Proven Durability: Survives drops on barricades, dusty stages, rain, and mud—clean up fast and get back on the clock.
Hunting Friendly: The low-profile 5-round option reduces snagging in brush and keeps your rifle trim for stalking and prone shots.
Use Cases
PRS/NRL & Club Matches: Load multiple magazines with stage-specific counts for clean transitions.
Long-Range Training: Practice single-feed, top-off, and tac reloads with a mag that mimics match conditions.
Hunting: Reliable, quiet feeding when you need a second shot on game.
Maintenance & Care
Routine Cleaning: Periodically remove the floorplate, slide out the spring and follower, and wipe internal walls clean.
Light Lube: Run dry or nearly dry—a trace of dry lube only; avoid heavy oils that gather grit.
Check Feed Lips: Inspect for dings after drops; gently dress minor bends to restore geometry.
Spring Health: Replace springs if you notice sluggish top rounds or inconsistent last-round hold.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will these mags work in my Remington 700?
A: If your rifle uses an AICS-pattern bottom metal or chassis, yes—AICS magazines are the intended standard. Stocks with hinged floorplates will need a DBM conversion.
Q: What about 6.5 Creedmoor or .260 Rem?
A: Many AICS .308-pattern mags run 6.5 CM/.260 successfully, but OAL and shoulder geometry matter. Consider caliber-specific followers or mags if loading long.
Q: Do they seat easily on a closed bolt?
A: With proper spring tension and feed geometry, most users can seat a full mag on a closed bolt. Techniques vary—practice with your rifle for best results.
Q: Are these steel or polymer?
A: AICS-pattern magazines commonly feature metal bodies with protective finishes. Check your SKU’s detailed listing for exact materials.
Q: 5-round or 10-round—what should I choose?
A: 5-round for hunting/low profile; 10-round for competition/training where faster stage work benefits from more capacity.
