Introducing the Grayboe 5-Round AICS Polymer Magazine: Lightweight, Durable, and Built for Reliability

When it comes to precision shooting, hunting, and building the perfect bolt-action rifle, every component matters. From your rifle stock to your detachable magazine, reliability and performance are essential.

That's why we're excited to introduce the Grayboe 5-Round AICS Short Action Polymer Magazine, a lightweight, American-made magazine designed for shooters who demand durability, dependable feeding, and compatibility with popular short-action cartridges.

Whether you're building a new precision rifle, upgrading your hunting setup, or looking for a dependable magazine for your existing AICS-compatible rifle, Grayboe has you covered.

Why Choose a Polymer AICS Magazine?

AICS (Accuracy International Chassis System) pattern magazines have become an industry standard for detachable magazine-fed bolt-action rifles.

Their popularity comes from widespread compatibility with precision rifle chassis systems, aftermarket rifle stocks, and detachable bottom metal assemblies.

Traditionally, many AICS magazines have been manufactured from steel. While steel magazines have proven themselves over the years, modern polymer magazines offer several advantages.

The Grayboe AICS Polymer Magazine weighs just 3.2 ounces, making it an excellent choice for hunters and precision shooters looking to reduce unnecessary weight.

Its sturdy, impact-resistant polymer construction provides durability without the added weight of traditional steel designs. The textured exterior also offers a secure gripping surface when handling the magazine.

And for shooters who enjoy customizing their rifles, the magazine's polymer material can be Cerakoted to complement their rifle's finish.

Engineered for Reliable Feeding

A dependable magazine is about more than holding ammunition. Consistent feeding is critical, whether you're shooting from a bench, competing in a precision rifle match, or hunting in challenging conditions.

The Grayboe AICS magazine incorporates two important features designed to promote reliable operation:

Anti-Tilt Super Follower

The anti-tilt follower is designed to maintain proper cartridge positioning as ammunition moves upward through the magazine, helping promote consistent feeding.

Heavy-Duty Stainless Steel Spring

A heavy-duty, non-memory, non-corrosive stainless steel spring provides consistent upward pressure on the follower while resisting corrosion.

Together, these features make the Grayboe AICS magazine a practical option for shooters who prioritize dependable performance.

What Calibers Are Compatible with the Grayboe AICS Magazine?

The Grayboe 5-Round Short Action Polymer Magazine is designed to work with the following calibers:

• .243 Winchester

• .22-250 Remington (reduced capacity)

• .260 Remington

• 6mm XC

This broad cartridge compatibility makes it a versatile choice for hunters, recreational shooters, and precision rifle enthusiasts.

Important: Magazine compatibility also depends on your rifle's action, magazine well, and feeding geometry. Always verify compatibility with your specific rifle configuration.

The Perfect Companion for Grayboe's Universal Mini Chassis

If you're already running a Grayboe rifle stock equipped with our Universal Mini Chassis (UMC), the new AICS polymer magazine is a natural addition to your setup.

The Grayboe UMC was designed to simplify rifle stock installation while providing a versatile platform for AICS-compatible detachable magazines.

Unlike traditional stock configurations that require separate bottom metal, the Grayboe UMC allows compatible AICS magazines to interface directly with the chassis integrated into the stock.

This means fewer components, simplified installation, and a streamlined rifle configuration.

Another major advantage of the Grayboe UMC is its modularity. The chassis can be removed and transferred between UMC-compatible Grayboe stocks, allowing shooters to change stock configurations without replacing the entire chassis system.

Whether you're using the Grayboe Core, Phoenix 2, Flagstaff, or another compatible UMC stock, our new AICS polymer magazine offers a lightweight ammunition-feeding option for supported short-action configurations.

A Lightweight Magazine for Hunting Rifles

For backcountry hunters, reducing rifle weight can make a meaningful difference during long days in the field.

At just 3.2 ounces, the Grayboe AICS polymer magazine complements lightweight rifle builds without sacrificing the durability expected from a field-ready magazine.

Its five-round capacity provides a practical ammunition configuration for many hunting applications, while the textured polymer body offers a secure gripping surface.

Combined with a lightweight Grayboe stock, the magazine helps create a streamlined rifle system suited for mountain hunting, general big-game hunting, and recreational shooting.

American-Made Quality at an Affordable Price

At Grayboe, we believe quality rifle components should be accessible to shooters without requiring unnecessary expense.

Our new AICS polymer magazine is proudly made in the USA and offered at a competitive price of $29.99.

With its impact-resistant construction, anti-tilt follower, corrosion-resistant spring, and versatile cartridge compatibility, it delivers practical features in an affordable package.
