The Magpul PMAG 5 AC (Magpul part no. MAG549-BLK) is a 5-round polymer magazine built by Magpul Industries for short-action, AICS-pattern bolt guns chambered in .308 Winchester, 6.5 Creedmoor, 7mm-08 Remington, .260 Remington, .243 Winchester, and 7.62x51mm NATO. It drops straight into the Bolt Action Magazine Well used on the Hunter 700 stock and any other AICS-spec short-action bottom metal, so hunters and precision shooters can add a proven magazine to an existing rifle without machining a thing. Magpul builds it with GEN M3 technology for smoother feeding and a more durable polymer shell, and a paint-pen dot matrix on the follower lets shooters mark handloads or track round count at a glance. A flared base plate gives a solid grip for fast, positive magazine changes in the field or at the bench. Capacity ships at 5 rounds to keep hunters compliant with common big-game magazine-capacity rules.
