Bully,
if you plan on single loading, then magazine box issues may be a "don't care" kind of a thing. If you plan to run it as a repeater, then you might also mention to your gunsmith that you intend to run it as a repeater and please check the magazine box geometry for reliable feeding with that differently proportioned cartridge than what the magazine box was originally setup for. And perhaps you might have to get a different magazine follower for the different sized cartridge. Have fun with the custom build!
