You are going to have to alter feed rails. The 303 British has a lot of taper in the case.

Check D'Arcy Echol's Blog for good info on what it takes to alter feed rails.

Yes, I have done one Mauser to Magnum. Read through D'Arcy Echols blog, It pretty much has all the info you need.

And yes, If you take too much it's hard to put it back.
