I've got a Winchester Model 54 in 30-06 that I just fitted a receiver sight to; I'd like to use stripper clips with the gun, which, if any, will fit?

Does your Model 54 already have the cuts for strippers in the receiver? (I'm not very familiar with the Win. 54). If so it will probably use 03 Springfield strippers.

Yes, the Model 54 I have has the clip slot. I don't know if later versions phased it out or not. I know the early Model 70s had clip slots.

I'm guessing, try a Springfield.

Standard stripper clips for the Springfield '03 or the Mauser 98 will work.

Masterifleman, are the '03 strippers and the '98 strippers "interchangable"? ie. '03 strippers will work in the '98 and visa versa?!!!

Yes, I have used 1909 Argentine strippers with a Model 70 NM and the that rifle will use the Springfield strippers too.
