I converted a cheap-o Cproducts 6.8 mag to feed 10mm.  Feeds fine cycling by hand, but i don't have a 10mm upper to test fire it with.  yet...

Nobody likes the idea of feeding 10mm through a standard lower in AR-profile mags?

Here's your other option

I'm gonna send it to Rudy at Macon for a quick feed test.  I'll be ordering a short 10mm barrel from him sooner or later.

OP how did the test fire go? This really peaks my interest. I'm a big 10mm fan.

Here is my AR 10mm. DDLES lg Glock lower. Ron Williams built lower and upper.

10mm and 6.8 share roughly the same case head diameter, so they stagger correctly between the feed lips and the ribs in the mag body.
In a 5.56 mag, they would stack taller and possibly bind in the mag a bit.
