[QUOTE="ofbandg, post: 1932976, member: 91402"] I'm with bigngreen on this. I bought a quality Mauser '98 a while ago that had been converted from a standard caliber to a magnum (.308 Norma) and when I pulled the bolt back a round would pop up jam the action because the bolt would contact the round under it in the mag and push it up trying to get both in the chamber. The feed rails had to be adjusted and, just as important, a follower designed for magnum rounds, had to be put in place. It works good now. [/QUOTE]
