Magazine Replacements for Mauser 98 action???

[Larz]

I have a rifle chambered in 300 win mag. It is built on a Mauser 98 action. I have to use it one shot at a time right now because the magazine won't feed more than one round correctly. The first round will strip off and when I eject the first case the rounds in the magazine pop out in the way of the bolt. Is there a quick fix for this. Or is there somewhere I can buy a replacement magazine. Or is a long Mauser 98 action not compatible with 300 win mag cases. Please Help. Thanks, Larz

Larz--

I've never had this specific problem before, but it sounds to me like the receiver rails were not altered properly (I'm assuming this was at one time a military action, and was rebarreled to the .300 mag).

You should ask at 'the smithy'; George Stringer will know, if anyone will.

Larz. Weegee has got it right. Find a good gunsmith and have him alter the feed rails to fix your rifle.
