Re: M98 Mauser

Nice, I have a M98 that was rusted and just all around ugly. I did about the same thing with it, but in 243. It shoots almost as good as my 6.5x47. The M98 project cost me around $500, my 6.5x47 $2500.
The only thing I don't care for is the grip on the B&C stock. I wish there were more tactical stock choices for the M98.

yeah if b&c would just make the A3 style medalist stock for M98's i'd be set! But since they didnt had to go with the A1...
