I'd like to use these AI mags in my next build. They make a 5-round magazine in CIP length (3.850 internal)
for the 300 Win Mag.
My cartridge is going to be 458 Win, not 300 Win. I called AI and asked if the feed lips on this particular magazine
would also work with the 458 and they kind of sidestepped the question and didn't really answer. I realize that it
must be very uncommon to find folks who have loaded 458 Win in a detachable magazine !
So here's my question. Does anyone here use the CIP magazine in 300 Win ?
Can you eyeball it and guess if the feed lips would feed a 458 ?
Now it's true that SAAMI 300WM is only 3.34" , likewise with the 458, so maybe the CIP length magazine will be fine, I don't know.
