I have decided to do something a bit different with a Mauser action I had sitting around. It’s an old Sears model 50, so it’s an FN commercial action that was chambered in 30-06.
I want to play around with pushing the Hornady 257 134 gr ELD-M bullet. I want to have it on the shorter side of things and threaded for a silencerco scythe.
I’m currently thinking a 25-06 1:8 twist and 17” threaded 1/2x28. I’m not certain what contour to have it profiled at though. Would like to make it as light as can be done reasonably.
Curious what thoughts people may have for how to do a modern quarter bore on a standard length Mauser.
