So Ok time to ask the hive once again
I am working on a 80% and after milling it I found that the mag release hole had not been drilled, I have on old plastic jig that has the opening for the drill but I have no idea what size drill bit I should use. So as always I really appreciate the help. |

I guess I should clarify I know the mag release is a stepped hole. What I was asking is the size drill needed for the shaft on the mag release.

Low res LR-308 print, but it looks like 0.20". I'll look for a ar15 print.
 Edit: add Here's a AR15 print and it appears to be 0.20" +- 0.003"
