[QUOTE="sable tireur, post: 1351851, member: 27307"] Respectfully, you are a little out of your comfort zone when it comes to customizing Mausers to feed odd, wildcat cartridges, especially those with rebated rims and short OAL. My opinion is that you need someone for some hands-on guidance since simple to read instructions from a forum are not going to cut it. Here is an article about this cartridge and some fitting and feeding advice with pictures: [URL]http://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/2016/09/josh-wayner/bolt-action-450-bushmaster-hunting-gun/[/URL] The process of feeding this type of cartridge is not a cut and paste situation when you want to use something approximating the original magazine system. It will be much more simple if you make the decision to use a DBM system. Yes, you'll still need to do some work on the feed rails and the feed ramp but that's better than fabricating a whole new magazine/trigger guard system.
