    Stripper clips ?

    So, I’ve just bought a Swedish mauser in 6.5 x 55, obviously
    Anyone know what stripper clips will fit ?
    Thanks.

    Sounds like a typical hunting trip !

    Well to be honest when I saw the title I was expecting either videos of stags shedding velvet or nude videos... I don't want to say I'm disappointed but...

    Swedish Mauser Stripper clips are pretty much the only ones that will work in Swedish Mausers. 6.5 Swede is a tad bigger at the base than 7mm/8mm Mauser, so clips for those calibers won't work well.

    No doubt someone on here could help you out with some.

    Here's a photo of a few.....

    My Swedish stripper clips were lousy at feeding, even when lubed up.
    I'm actually using 8mm clips and they seem to work better for me.

    Where do you buy your stripper clips? I'd like a couple to suit a 308/3006 sized rim. Something by 57 would be ok also.

    I use 6.5x55 Swedish clips in my 6.5x51R Japanese. I understand 7mm Mauser clips is another option for both.

    Are Stripper clips classed as a "Gun Part?"

    Yes, if customs or plod interprets "magazine loaders" as stripper clips, aka chargers.

    (I'd have thought loaders is something that saves you broken nails when loading big, single-feed magazines.)
