hi there gents. i recently had a gun rebarreled, 30-06 to 6.5x55 ai in a browning a-bolt. a little problem i have is feeding ammo into barrel. want to know if a person can buy the follower and ramp for a 257 Roberts and install them into the existing magazine and work right. has anybody ever done this. really don't want to make this a single shot.or do i have to buy the hinge plate and new magazine?

gun is an hour away. when you use the browning 30-06 magazine, shells go in fine, but when you try to put in a 6.5x55 shell thru it the shell doe not lift high enough to center into barrel. therfore buggering end of bullet. was wondering if a 257 roberts magazine would be close enough to work or try and see if i can find a 6.5 swede follower and ramp or entire magazine. any thoughts?
