I use Ruger 77 followers.
Check Brownells for a mag follower for a 98; they used to sell them. Not sure now.

Jim Wisner used to make a 404 Mauser follower. I have one. He may have some left over from before.
Good luck.

I think Duane Wiebe was making one or two variations. Maybe the fella that took over his bottom metal making business has some, or maybe Duane has some.

FISH!!

Heed the words of Winston Smith in Orwell's 1984:

"Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right."

I presume this is just for cosmetics as the standard follower plate works fine in M98's opened up for the 404 cartridge, well at least mine does, although it has been highly polished to an almost chrome like finish, as has the bolt so feeding the big 404 cartridge from the magazine is as slick as snot.
