[QUOTE="shortgrass, post: 2543277, member: 24284"] All the Blackburn bottom metal and follower will do is allow 3 'down' instead of the 2 that most Mauser magazines will, and give you a hinged floor plate with an 'in the bow' release. The Mauser feeds "off the rails", that's where the alterations need to take place, and the feed ramp, too. The radius on the under side of the feed rails may need to be increased to allow for the larger diameter cartridges. There are no feed lips on a Mauser magazine to tweak. The OP didn't specify if his actions were 'commercial' '98s, or military, just "custom" ,,, which covers a wide swath. [/QUOTE]
