Ruger 308 Magazine Multi-caliber problem

I recently purchased three of the Ruger 308 Multi-caliber magazines and tried to insert them into several of my Ruger American rifles. As is, they don't fit. However by running a file over the lead, top corners they fit just fine. If you look at the fit in the receiver, you will see (by looking into the ejection port) that the mags touch the receiver at the very front edge of the mag. It only took a very small amount of filing to remove the material to allow the front edge of the mag to be fully inserted. I had the same situation with some 450 bushmaster mags that some said would work in the 308. I fixed those the same way. Hope this helps anyone who has found this problem with their mags.
