It seems to be like a Winch 70 Safari Express ... But the barrel seems to be coated with ... ??
Good looking !! and "4 leaf clover moved up 1" .... no comment !!!!:clapping:
 
I know this is an old thread but has anyone else done and UG like the one above?
Ive a very nice donar mauser that may just fit the bill if I can get it for the right price.

Am I missing anything that might rear it's ugly (read expensive) head somewhere along the project?
Yip.....Rem M700.....
 
Looks like I’ll have to shelve this idea as the firearms department are being shitty about owning one.
Guess I’ll need to look at a 375. Such a shame. But it’s no good to me if I can’t shoot it. At l’est with a 375 I can use it any day of the week and not have to look over my shoulder.
But dam if I move back to NZ then I’ll have it built on the 375 action that I buy!
Up there’s I think the saying goes.
Cheers S
 
I don’t recommend a Remington Model 700 action for a rifle in a dangerous game caliber such as the .404 Jeffery. Unless, you had a gunsmith fit an M16 extractor to the bolt for more reliable extraction.

Is this rifle sold? If not what is the weight of it and do you know if there is enough difference in diameter between the 35W and the 9.3 to allow for a rebore to a 9.3x62 which is what I am after?
Thanks,
Gary (Just down the road in Springfield)

Forgive me if this is the incorrect area, I signed up to this forum just now because I wanted to be on the list to purchase a copy of your autobiography. Please feel free to pass my information along to whomever is selling. Thank you so much. I look forward to it!
I like the Tillie in my picture. They are supposed to fit loose (2 fingers inside hat band), have mesh for cooling, and hold their shape after washing.
