Gents I have a beautiful, German made Weatherby MKV in 7mmWeatherby that is in need of a follower. The original was stolen. Believe it or not, according to Weatherby, they only supply PLASTIC (the horror) followers now. I have a plastic one, I guess it can be used as a template? Anyway if one of you artists can make one, please PM me.

I understand you wanting to get your prize back to 100% but the plastic followers may work a bit better. I have one for a M70 30-06 length magazine and it feeds like it's getting paid to. My M70 FW with a Winlite stock has a blind magazine and a plastic follower.

I bought a plastic one and it doesn't work forshit. Last round won't feed and besides it looks horrible.

I have a German Mark V in 257 coming in at the end of next week. Hoping it has a metal follower.

I can;'t believe Weatherby would not sell you a metal follower.

They would not. And in fact when I asked them about new production MKV Deluxes and even Custom shop offerings, they told me they were all plastic. horseshit

They have lost their mind.

Theoretically, the plastic follower can be invested and cast, but then you'll have a metal version of what doesn't work. Same with using the plastic one to CNC.

Will a Mauser follower work?

I ordered a 98 follower on Ebay..

Jorge, I got my German 257 in today , it has a stainless steel follower.

Ruger followers are another option, they tend to fit many different actions.

Cheers.

Boy would i like to find out a 700 follower would work!
Just to know Jorgel was usding a "700"!
