    Any Mauser experts?

    Alright, some more photos attached. Thank you all for your help! The magazine is double stacked. I put a 6.5mm nylon bore brush down it and it fit like it should.

    Any Mauser experts?

    I’ll take some more pics when I reassemble. I attached the hand etched 6.5x55, and the guy I traded with gave me a half shot box of ammo. I placed one in the chamber and it seems correct as well

    Any Mauser experts?

    thank you so much for the insight! You’re saying there could be markings under there?

    Any Mauser experts?

    That was easy! I don’t see any additional markings, except these two at the trigger I didn’t notice before. Where should I see something?

    Any Mauser experts?

    Does pulling the action require a gunsmith? Or at least to do properly? I’ve never done it, just assumed it was complicated

    Any Mauser experts?

    Just received this Mauser on trade. Chambered in 6.5x55 Swedish, but I think it might be done aftermarket as there are no factory barrel stamps. I’ve included pics of any and all stamping and writing I could find on the gun. Anyone out here know exactly what this is? The whole Mauser world has...

    Torn between rifles

    I own a tikka 308 and an x bolt 6.5prc. Gotta give the nod to the x bolt, but both are great. I like the fit and feel of the x bolt better (personal preference) and it’s definitely more accurate (but I think that might have more to do with 308vs6.5prc).

    Grade 2 ACL injury. Wait til after hunting season?

    Had my ACL redone one year ago yesterday. I was 25 at time of surgery, so factor that in. At 3 months I felt 100% in daily activity, but still felt discomfort when squatting or other similar maneuvers that bent my knee past 90* with body weight on it (such as climbing a mountain). By 6 months i...

    Which Half ton Pick ups are yall driving?

    2018 F150 Lariat. Think I got a lemon, but it’s a POS. Bought it in 2021 with 37k miles. First 52 weeks I owned it, it spent 7 of em in the shop for 4 different issues. Also, everything on it is ungodly expensive. Cracked tail light - 2 weeks shop time and $3k. Alternator - 9 days shop time...

    Close Range Whitetail Bullets

    I’ve killed 3 white tails in the last 2 years in the southeast. All under 75 yard shots. 2 were shot with federal terminal ascent. One bled like hell, one didn’t exit and I didn’t find a drop of blood. Both deer ran 40-50 yards and were recovered quite easily. The terminal ascent caused a little...

    Hey Rimfire Guys.....

    I went the bergara route last year and glad I did. Haven’t handled many other 22 bolts, so I don’t know if it’s a 22 thing, but the action isn’t the most buttery thing you’ve ever felt. The accuracy however is incredible. 5 shot groups damn near one whole at 50 yards with 3 different cheap...

    Rifle suggestion

    My .02 as well. Own a tikka T3x SS .308 and x bolt hells canyon 6.5 PRC. Granted they’re different cartridges, but I like the x bolt more. My tikka shoots well, but my x bolt has been 1/2” @100y with all 3 factory loads I tried (again, could be the cartridge more than the rifle, but he’s asking...

    Sold XL Sitka Baselayer Bottoms

    That’s unfortunate! They’re nice bottoms, just a little too loose on me to make work (32 waste. 6’1” ~180lbs)

    6.5 PRC Dilemma

    I finally did, probably a month or so ago. Went with the Browning X Bolt Hell’s Canyon speed (24”) in 6.5 PRC. Have only fired 20 rounds through it so far, but I absolutely love it. Much more pleasant to shoot than my .308 tikka t3x. I’m very pleased with my choice, and ammo hasn’t been too...
