Now about the 308 PMags not having the anti-tilt followers - that is untrue. I have a DPMS LR-308 and a dozen 20rd PMags for it and every one of them has an anti-tilt follower.

Maybe they have changed something in the last 12 months but the 20 that I bought in preparation for the LMT MWS that I never bought did NOT have them.
If you pushed down on the front or back of the follower, it would lock the follower in place.

The geometries of the 7.62x51 cartridge and of this magazine pattern (SR25/M110) are different from the 5.56x45 M16 pattern, and don't require an anti-tilt follower. While in theory we could build one, the internal dimensions of the PMAG 20LR are large enough that the length of the mag would have to be increased dramatically to fit the necessarily longer legs of an anti-tilt follower (as noted by Brahmzy above).

I have never seen it happen on an in spec aluminum mag with even just the green follower, unless I tested it exactly as I did above with the LR-20.
I still think it is a gimmick.
