What modifications need to be done to AR magazines to feed .50 Beowulf, and is it 'undoable' afterwards? Can a .50 Beowulf magazine straight from the factory feed 5.56 cartridges, or can it be made to?
The design of the .50 Beowulf allows standard AR-15 magazines to be used with slight modifications to the feed lips. Surplus high-capacity magazines can be modified easily for use with the .50 Beowulf.
You have to open up the feed lips to get a .223 magazine to feed the .50 round. If you do open up the feed lips then the .223 rounds will pop out of the magazine.
