Run a Google Search for "Yugo Mauser rifles" - is some shown for sale there. The M48 Mauser is neither an m96 nor a K98k (m98) version - Wikipedia discusses the differences - I believe the M48 bolt body is shorter than found in the K98k rifle, longer than the m96. Action hole spacing is different, therefore bottom metal is different size, stock inletting is different.

I thought I knew what you were talking about, and I was in the midst of pasting the link to Wolverine Supplies (Link here: https://wolverinesupplies.com/shop/rifles/rifles?Caliber=[8x57+Mauser]&ScrollPos=290 ) for their Yugo Mausers but then saw they were M48. Then I thought, oh, I saw M98 rifles on Intersurplus (that link here: https://intersurplus.com/collections/8x57 ) but those don't say anything of being Yugo they all appear to be factory built sporter rifles. So... I tried, but can't help you unfortunately

Having both a Russian capture K98 and a Yugo M48, I confirm that the bolts are not interchangeable. I tried it once, out of curiosity…
