Hello!
Has anyone here built a 416 Ruger on a standard Mauser 98 action?

Any info is appreciated!
Thanks!
 
I have not built a .416 Ruger on a K98 8x57/standard Mauser. However, I have built multiple .35 WAI on Turk '38 Mausers.

The effort must not be done on a VZ-24 action - they are about 3/8" shorter than standard Mauser actions and the .30-06 length cartridge noses into the side rail as it comes out of the magazine. I would keep K98s for collector value and use a Turk, as I did.
 
I have a surplus Mauser 98, that was rebuild by Kongsberg gunfactory in Norway, to a target rifle with dipoter sights. Its not that rare.
