They should work with any bottom metal designed to accept AICS magazines
They won't work in all receiver/bottom metal combinations. the one I specifically know about is that they won't fit in any Tikka T3 - the receiver opening isn't large enough to accept the larger than normal feedlips of magpul aics mags.

Mine work in seekins bottom metal in 300 win. They are a much tighter fit then the AICS but they work for me.
As noted above, they should work with any that is patterned for AICS mags. I have a Rem 700 308 in an MDT chassis and they have been trouble free in that setup.
Remington 700 with badger ordinance mag well has worked flawlessly with the magpul AICS mags. I have 6 magpul mags and no problems with any of them.
Hey Thank You, for all your help. Just for FYI I'm wanting to add a detachable magazine to a hunting rifle (Remington 700 .30-06). I was wanting to use a Macmillan Game Scout stocl. Once again thanks for all your help
They will work with CDI as well, they are a bit tight though, as others have noted. On my Manners the DBM was bedded flush, so the smith popped the release lever out and trimmed it down a few thousandths and it works like a champ.
They work with Remy 700 with B.O. bottom metal as pointed out above and PTG bottom metal. Drop freely with both as well.
They also work with the Ruger Gunsite Scout rifle.
Yep, they fit in my Ruger scout rifle as well.

Confirmed on that. Tikka 6.5 creedmoor T3x in MDT HS3 chassis and magpul AICS mags will not insert far enough into action to feed. Biggest dissappointment so far with this rifle.

I just picked up magpul AC L standard mag to try on my 30-06. It's a Remington 700 clone in a McMillan A5 with Badger Ordinance bottom metal. The magazine works and feeds. It definitely requires a little fiddling around to get the latch to lock and there is alot more play when inserted than with the AI magazines.

i just dropped off a Magpul 5-rd AICS (short-action) with Seekins DBM to my gunsmith. He tested everything and said it worked fine. Easy insertion and ejection.

Regarding Tikka T3s, nor do they work in an XLR Element chassis.
They also work with the Ruger Gunsite Scout rifle.
Looking to grab some of those for that gun. Just comes with the one metal box mag now.
They're much easier to load than the steel mag that comes with the GSR. With the factory steel, that 10th round can be extremely difficult to get in. The Magpuls & the Ruger polymer mags load much easier.
the DONT work in a actual AI rifle.... the feed lips are to big and hit the receiver.
Where are you all getting them? I keep seeing back ordered on major supplier web sites.

I have a Manners/Rem700 that has issues with the Magpul mags. The bolt glides over the next round and does not pick it up...very frustrating.
