The shims in the mag are used either in the Level 10 kit or in the ULT kit. Either way, they are used as spacers to move the sealing point of an oring.

Level 10 shims are .010"
ULT shims are .005"

Off the top of my half drunk head, the only time you use shims in a Mag is either for a LVL 10 set up (inside the power tube), or on the ULT Kit.

Both are different sizes.
