[QUOTE="Wado, post: 1354426, member: 42926"] I built a Savage bolt action 458 SOCOM and to get it to feed I used 300 WSM magazines with a nylon ramp in the front epoxied of the magazine. I tried it with the unaltered mag and they nose dived like you describe. The rounds are short and extremely heavy but the Savage being a push feed just needs them to get out of the mag in the general direction of the bore. I imagine the Mauser claw type is going to be more of a challenge but I bet it can be done. Here is a picture of the magazine. The white piece is the ramp I epoxied in to help lift the front of the bullet up. [ATTACH=full]82896[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]82896[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
