  No, A-Bolt magazines work in A-Bolts. If you need a Remington mag you'll need to buy one that's for your model Remington.

  golferboy,
  
  I have several A-Bolt's, and Browning/Miroku's designs are kind of refined. They actually do pay close attention to the bend in the feed lips. I do not think there would be enough room in a lesser chambering, like a 270 , for say a 30-06. A 30-06 might work for a 270, but I would highly doubt the other way around. 300 Win would possibly work for 7mm rem, but not the other way around. That said, I do have one in 260 remington, and could not find another magazine for it, and a 7mm-08 works well in it.
  
  Best, and Happy New Year

  I think tsr1965 has it. I have several A-bolts as well and they all have magazines stamped specifically with the chambering. A friend bought a .280 at a gun show and it had a .25/06 magazine in it. It wouldn't feed reliabily. Fortunately, he was able to get a .280 magazine at the next gun show.
