[QUOTE="Bullet bumper, post: 904281, member: 17844"] Some might ride up and under the claw but many don't do it reliably . Using a purpose built single shot is different to using a magazine and dropping a round on as a single shot . I think the purpose built single shot may have the round starting in a similar position to a round in a magazine . They will do it but it is still risky as I have seen broken extractors . It most likely already has a modified claw which helps . Mine is modified and will do it no worries but it is still not as easy as a purpose built push feed . It's not working as a CRF if it clipping over the rim on chambering , then it's a push feed . If it rides up into the extractor claw as you close the bolt then that is good but mine will not if it's just dropped in on the magazine follower. Push it into the magazine and it's CRF . It's no big deal as I can just clip in a single round each time and push into the blind magazine with my thumb but the problem is my Mauser has two barrels one in 243 and one in 30-06 , now the magazine is for the 30-06 so with the 243 in it there is more front space in the mag so it tends to not want to feed as well as the 30-06 does. The 243 works better one round at a time but sometimes I just push feed . [/QUOTE]
