I use GI mags with no problems with heavy bullets but when using lighter and shorter bullets the bolt only sometimes will catch the back of the case(the round tilts up towards the front of the mag and the back of the brass is lower).
What mod can I do to feed the shorter bullets?

Will the HK 91 or G3 Mags work in the DPMS LR308?

Ensure your followers are the newer no tilt designs. tan or light green followers. If you have the older black or aluminum followers you will get tilting issues with lighter 110grbullets.

I seem to recall the DPMS LR 308 uses AR10 type magazines

Magazines
There are primarily two magazines styles for the .308 rifles, the original Armalite-Fairchild magazines used in the original AR-10s, then picked up by the KAC SR-25 (henceforth called the SR-25 Type) and the Modern Armalite AR-10 type which is a modified M-14 magazine. It should be pointed out RRA (and formerly Bushmaster) make rifles that use FAL magazines, and CMMG has a lower which uses G3 magazines.

Armalite AR-10 type (used by Armalite, Noveske, Eagle Arms, Georgia Precision; capacities: 5, 10, 20, 25)

SR-25 Type
(used by DPMS, KAC, LaRue, POF, LWRC, JP Rifles, 1950s Armalites, Remington, Fulton-Armory; capacities: 4, 10, 19, 20)

FAL Magzines (Metric or Inch pattern; used by Bushmaster, RRA; capacities: 5, 10, 20, 30)

G3 Magazines (CMMG .308 Lower)
