8x56R w Cast Bullet/Preliminary Results

[Claven2]

I'm no expert on these, but the Yugos did convert some of these to be able to feed without the clip. Any chance you possibly have one of the conversions?

It does not look like it, as the stripper clips feed into the magazine of both rifles and release after the last shot. The previous owner also fired ball ammo through it with the clips. The bolt usually just barely catches the rim of the cartridge, whereas on the third or fourth round, the cartridge does not sit high enough in the magazine to become engaged/stripped off by the bolt moving forward.
