My defiance action and Hawkins DBM will accept AW mags. Is there any negative draw backs on running them? The only thing I can think of is the AI mags feed straight in line with the chamber versus each side. Could that cause accuracy (bullet deform) or feeding issues?

On mine I could get it to feed (terminus) but it was finicky. The AI uses dual feed rams almost like an AR-15. But most bolt actions have center/single feed ramps. I have found guys who modified the ramps and it acn work. But most guys give up and just run aics for this reason
