This does not work. I just tried my .308 Mag in my .223.

The opening is wider on the .308 and the cases almost pop out. The follower and cases tip at a 45 degree angle. When I tried to chamber a dummy round, the bolt wouldn’t catch the case and it would fail to feed, the case would end up facing 90 degrees to the chamber and caught between the action and bolt.
