i have a mauser argentino 1891 and i am sick of buying all my ammo online and not being able to shoot whenever i want. im looking at doing a updated sporterized set up, i was looking at ideas for making it a med-long range hunting rifle. and as i am new to distance shooting i am completely lost if anyone has any help or ideas they would be greatly appreciated.

Re: looking to update

perhaps you could get into reloading? The frustrating thing about the 91 is that it is not really a high pressure action, which limits what you can realistically do via re-barrel ect.

Howa, Savage, and Remington all make relatively inexpensive rifles in great chamberings. Perhaps catch a real good sale on something in .243, 260, 7mm-08, 308 ect.

Good luck

Re: looking to update

hey thank you,not exactly what i wanted to hear but that is kind of what iv been hearing. unfortunatly the only draw back to reloading is that i have to convince my wife i need another shooting hobby
