    I was going to post this exact same video! Thanks to this video I was able to get the magazine inserted without any problem.

    Except.

    With me there is always an except. The bolt misses by a hair the lip of the cartridge to insert it into the firing chamber. I mean a hair. For the life of me I don't know what to do about it.
    Guns, Jeeps, fishing and rye -- the cornerstones of a happy life.

    I got it to fit for the most part, but the problem I am having with mine is that the bolt won't stay open and the bullets don't feed properly unless I reposition the follower after each casing ejection. I don't know if I have to shim it or what. I am blaming it on the follower. Trying to think of some ideas in the meantime.

    Here is another video. It is problems with an original mag and the work that he attempted to rectify issues.
