[QUOTE="Hard rock, post: 2374064, member: 116620"] One of my rifles that stand out among the rest is a small ring Mexican Mauser 7 mm x57 that my dad built . We found some brand new never fired in the white military barrels in shotgun news for 33.00 each for large ring mausers. My dad being a gun and stock maker took the barrel turned the shank down and rethreaded it for the small ring Mauser cut and crowned it , installed it and headspaced it off of a new piece of brass ,drilled and taped it , altered the bolt lapped the lugs and bolt face and built a beautiful English walnut stock with 24 lines too the inch no boarder checkering . I installed a Weaver 3x9 scope bore sighted it went too my range with some factory Hornady 139 gr interlocks and shot a four shot ragged hole dead nuts zero one in high at a 100 yds and have not made one scope adjustment. I haven’t shot it since that’s my story of my dad me and his rifle I inherited . [/QUOTE]
