Catch and Release...confessions being good for the soul I went on a bit of a tear and bought a bunch of Ruger #1s, big bores, and a double after joining this august forum and now realize I'll never give them the love they need. First world problems.

I purchased this action from @Angelo_orygun. This pre-64 Model 70 action was vetted in his thread for being used in a 404 build ( https://www.africahunting.com/threads/1950-h-h-magnum-model-70-action.71712/) so I suggest giving it a read.

Quick summary:
The action is complete and was originally in a rifle chambered in 300 RUM. It was sent to the firm Pre64Win (www.pre64win.com) for blueprinting, which includes:

Re-cutting and truing of the receiver barrel threads
Re-cutting and truing of the receiver bolt lugs
Re-cutting and truing of the receiver face
Lapping of the bolt lugs to the receiver lugs
Re-cutting and truing of the bolt face

Note that Finish restoration of all surfaces is not yet completed.

Asking $1400 shipped to your FFL if they accept non-FFL shipment. $1500 if it needs to come from an FFL.

Had an excellent classifieds transaction with JoninCO. A truly honest and standup member. I wouldn't hesitate at all to deal with him again. Thanks, J!

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx
