.17 HMR magazine question

Hi everyone. Does anyone know if a .22 mag magazine will fit a 93R .17HMR? I have been told they will but....
The reason for this is trying to find a magazine larger than 5 rounds which Savage says is not available. They declined to answer the .22 mag compatability question though! Thanks!

Yes, the magazines are interchangeable in both rifles. The .17HMR is directly based on the .22WMR.

If the magazines are both for a savage 93 then yes.

I really don't think there are any mags for the 93 over 5 rounds. I have looked and looked and looked. I don't know if something like that exists.

Marlin makes a 7 round mag for their .17HMR rifles. Maybe you could mod one of those, or have a gunsmith do it.
