Johann Springer Mauser '98 8mm
Superb condition
Ziess scope in claw mounts. Tastefully appointed with tang safety, quarter rib, etc in the quality expected of Springer.
Really, a great rifle of high quality.
$2000 + actual shipping

Tang Safety and Quarter Rib alone put this in the very cool club.

I've owned this maker's rifles and I've always found them to be VERY well made. GLWS.
 
Really nice to see one with the original claw mounts and scope still intact. There is tremendous value in the continental mauser sporters of this period.
 
Also cool to see maker engraving on the scope tube. Springer is a level up.
 
Is this rifle an 8x57j or an 8x62J? I initially assumed an 8x57J, but I believe that many post WWI rifles were 8x62J.
 
I can only speak for the rimmed version used in Drillings--the JR is easier to obtain than JRS and cheaper to boot. I would imagine the J, .318 non-rimmed is a bit rarer?
 
Can't believe it hasn't sold yet...

Can you imagine what it would cost to build a similar one today???

It's sorely tempting, that's for sure

I believe that 8x57JS ammo is fairly easy to find so ammo should not be a problem. If you want to hunt or shoot at the range with a truly classic rifle that is capable of taking any North American game, here it is.

I know right!!?? I see used Tikka rifles with vortex vipers onboard for $2k… this rifle ought to be worth double that.

Just wanted to say thanks for the excellent customer service. Ordered some 9.3x62 brass and the delivery was a little short. An email through your website Contact Us link was replied to the next day with the tracking info for the correction. Good pricing coupled with great customer service will see returning customers every time. Thanks again!

X5i scope is perfect - thanks for an easy transaction! Buy with confidence.
Made it to Augusta Georgia yesterday for a meeting, hunt bookings are looking good for 2026 and 2027, had a great time on our Alabama safari shot a rutting deer at 200 yards with 7mm PRC near Huntsville and then headed on to Butler Alabama and semi guided my first deer ever shot a very nice broken off 8 point with hunter there and spend a few days on 1100 acres hunting preserve awesome place!

I am righthanded, so not interested in the rifle, but I have a 375 RUM and 350 gr bullet loading data is very hard to come by. If you could reply with information regarding your loads I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you, Ray Boone, Leavenworth, WA

Hello - I was looking at your post from several years ago regarding the Winchester 300 H&H. Any chance you still have the lefty M70 300 H&H for sale?
Thank you, Mike
