[QUOTE="waltercrouse, post: 1351775, member: 69209"] I have Mauser 98 built by Steyer for some south America country. The rifles were 7x57 and they were converted to 308 win (7.62 Nato) in 1961. They had rebored the barrels for the 30 cal instead of the 7mm cal. The magazine had a spacer installed for the shorter cases. The problem I had was the rifle would shoot 165 grain or heavier bullets. I was able have it rebarreled with a Shilen barrel in 308 win. A spacer in your magazine maybe your answer. [/QUOTE]
