Mauser stripper clip compatibility

[henschman]

Could anyone tell me if stripper clips for a Swedish Mauser in 6.5x55 will fit in the stripper clip guide of a K98 variant?

I am needing stripper clips for my FR-8, and I found a good deal on 6.5x55 stripper clips, but I'm not sure they will fit in my guide. The FR-8 has the same guide as the 7.92x57 K98s. I already found out that M-14/L1A1 stripper clips are too fat (which is too bad, since I have boatloads of them).

Thanks,

I use the Swedish stripper clips in my Arisakas and they dont work in K98's.

Thanks... I will just have to find some good 2-piece K98 strippers I guess.
