Pretty cheap rifle at Cabela’s, unmarked barrel and action (serialized but no mfg I could find), anyone recognize the action or rifle brand?

Yep. vz.24 is one of the best 98 Mauser clones to build. I built one into 404J. It cycles like glass.

What caliber? Isn't that a Tasco scope?

The barrel is unmarked for caliber from the pictures I can see. Going to call first thing and ask about it.

Value depends a lot on caliber. The odds are it is 30-06. It's a nice rifle but in that caliber I think $700-$800 would be max. If it is a special African caliber (e.g. 375 H&H or 404 Jeffery) it could be worth quite a bit more. However, unlikely it's 375 as the locking ring and bottom metal are not modified.

Often, those no-name Mausers are the best deals - this among them!
I'd buy it just for the stock let alone the barreled action - I think it's a steal.

It might be a steal but for me right now it’s something I don’t need that could be better saved towards a rifle I actually want

An excellent AH member right here! I had a fantastic transaction with Hornedfrogbbq (I was the seller). His communication was first rate, payment was extremely fast, and I would have absolutely no reservations at all dealing with him again. Thank you, F!

Here we are, the last day of the show in Denver, it's been a good show but expecting a quiet day today. I will be back for-sure to do this show next year and maybe also do the one in Sacramento California.

On Monday I will be hitting the road driving from Denver and eventually make it down to Atlanta for the flight home.

its going to be a good year!

Hi Rem280, Saw your post on getting selected for Idaho Elk. Do you have a zone(s) selected? I live in N Idaho, might be able to offer some ideas.

Cheers,

Craig
