CZ 550 follower? Login/Join

Hi all,
This is a follow up on my CZ 550 build where I was after a 375 style mag box to suit.
Now I need to know if any of you guys can tell me if I need a different follower?
The one in my rifle is marked '458', since I'm building a 416 Rigby I know I need to open the feed rails, but is the follower going to hamper this project? The rifle is chambered in 458WM, I already have the barrel, mag box and correct Rigby extractor, still need to open the bolt face and fit the barrel. The 416 cartridge still will not clear the feed rails, but this is easily rectified.
Any advice or info is appreciated.
If anyone that has a Safari Magnum in 416 Rigby could have a look at their follower to see if it's marked '416' would also be greatly appreciated.

Cheers.

Just a suggestion, but check w/ Bitterroot @ AHR, who posted on your other thread regarding the mag boxes. Or, just PM him. I'm sure he would.

The 416 does come with it's own follower and is marked so on the bottom. Again, I have boxes of them and I can send you one if you need it.
