I assume you want to remove the orange colored magazine follower? If so, you first need to unscrew the end-cap on the front end of the magazine tube. Looking into the front end of the magazine tube you will see a split bushing with a hole in the center of it. Carefully, very carefully, pry this end-cap out of the magazine tube. The reason you need to be careful is that this split end-cap is under pressure from the compressed magazine tube spring and once you remove the end-cap the spring will come out quickly. Once the spring is out you can then remove the orange end-cap. There may be a shotshell restricter (plug) inside the spring that restricts the magazine tube to only hold three rounds. This is a green plastic plug and can also be removed now.

Where can you find an internal magazine for an A303 Remington 30.06?

Try eguns.com, they have a large supply of odd gun parts. I recently bought a 'W' shaped spring that is inside that magazine for 8 bucks from this supplier, and my rifle works better than ever. They could have the whole magazine and screws if it is missing from your firearm. Hope this helps.
