SR-25 magazine recommendations?

I've ordered an AR-10 which should be here in 2 weeks. It takes SR-25 magazines.

Any recommendations of ones to look at or stay away from?

Thanks!

I ordered my DPMS in response to Obama winning an election. Before the rifle was built,I ordered a supply of magazines. This was before Magpul was an option.

I found "C" Products. Prices were reasonable. Laserwelded stainless steel,They are black. Its thin gauge,but seems to be heat treated to a spring temper. They do not feel flimsy,but are not the weight of steel FN FAL or M-14 mags.

I'm happy with them. Mine have worked out for me.

The magazines arrived weeks before the rifle did.

ASC makes a decent mag. I don't remember off the top of my head what kind of COAL you can get if you reload.

D&Hs are good in my 2 308 ARs, Magpul is tight in my PSA. I moved to D&H.

I use a few Magpul's and ASC mags. No problems with either of them.

@HankC1

What Gen PSA ?... my Gen II's benefited from burnishing the interior of the magwell with some 0000 Steelwool ( won't scratch glass )

For the OP, what brand Large Frame AR?.. caliber ? I figure 308, but ...

My PSA's all like Magpul , D&H, IWI. Lancers have VERY stiff mag springs, and tend to cause drag on my soft shooters BCG's
Soft shooters means , Adj. GB's, heavy buffer weights and recoil springs , Muzzle brakes.
