[QUOTE="criticalbass, post: 2014312, member: 711"] If you decide to see what fits, it might be a good idea to use fired brass rather than live rounds in the interest of safety. If you do, put the brass in the magazine so the extractor can slip over the rim rather than putting the brass in the chamber. With empty brass, you may need to use a small screwdriver or something similar to raise the front end of the brass so it doesn't jam against the feed ramp as it moves forward. If you are not familiar with controlled round feed vs push feed, google it. I think all Mausers are controlled round feed, and you can damage the extractor by loading rounds directly into the chamber and then closing the bolt. Milsurp2.0, are you sure the .308 won't go? Is it a case diameter issue? [/QUOTE]
