Mauser M98- Has Anyone Purchased One Recently?

Nice piece Mike :cool:

Did you need to have it re-reamed to accept 175 gr loads, as Bobby had to do with his Rigby Highland Stalker (reamed for 140 gr pills), or were Mauser smart enough to retain on their own version the original chamber dimensions?

When I ordered mine, I requested a longer chamber which they did. The twist handles 140 through 170 equally well. However, I pretty much use Norma 152's for everything now.

Expert, then. Still very high end, of course. Makes my own 7x57mm Mauser Churchill Gun Makers Model Deluxe (built on a 1943 military surplus DWM Mauser Oberndorf action) look like a barbarian’s gun.

Hunter-Habib, No 7x57 looks to be a barbarians rifle.;) Your's happens to be well used, just as they should be.
 
Timney makes a low profile Mauser 98 flag safety so that a scope can be used if one doesn’t desire changing to a M70 style 3 position. Here is one on an FN Mauser 98, 30-06 that I later sold. This worked fine although my preference is for a M70 type 3 position because that’s what I’m used to.

Hi - the only (best) method of sending you the .375/06IMP data is with photographing my book notes. My camera died so the only way I can do it is with my phone. To do that, I would need your e-mail address, as this
new Android phone is too complicated to upload to my desk computer, which would be easier and to down-grade, reduce the file sizes.
Best wishes
Daryl

Hey Steve, This is Steve Washington we met at KMG last year. I am interested in your Winchester. Would love to speak with you about it. I work third shift and I cannot take a phone with me to work. Let me know a good time to call during one of your mornings. My phone is [redacted]. Live in Florida so I have to account for the time difference.
Look forward to hearing from you.

Good day, Slider.

Do you by any chance have any 500NE brass left that you are willing to part ways with?

Best regards,
Boela Bekker.
