Up for sale is a custom built Dumoulin Mauser 98 large ring action with a 6.5x55 (Swede) caliber 23-inch Douglas premium barrel in sporting configuration and a Bell and Carlson Mauser 98 sporting stock with cheekpiece and full-length aluminum bedding block. The stock has a dark brown undercoat, with black webbing, and a 1-inch Pachmayr black recoil pad. Stock was over painted in a nice camo pattern.

The action, barrel, stock, new B-Square hex head action screws, new Dakota Arms 3-position safety and new Timney Trigger were sent to Gunsmith John King of Kila, MT. He faced off the front of the action, milled an 11-degree target crown on the muzzle, lapped the bolt lugs, smoothed the action, installed and headspaced the barrel, installed a new magazine spring, installed the new safety and trigger, glass bedded the stock and free floated the barrel. The rifle was then shipped to Accurate Plating & Weaponry where they finished the metal in matte hard chrome.

Comes with custom 1-inch scope rings from Sunny Hill Enterprise, which require no mounts, they mount directly on the action. The action is also drilled and tapped for mounts if you wish to use them and not the current rings, but I am not sure which mounts would be used.

This is an all-weather rifle, in a great caliber, ready for you to mount a scope and take hunting. I do not have a scale but estimate the weight at 7 to 8 pounds. Trigger is set at 3 pounds. Length of pull is 13.5 inches and there is a 3 day, no shooting, examination. Return shipping will be paid by the buyer. I lost all the paperwork on this build during one of my moves. The rifle has never been shot. I have no ammo, brass, bullets or dies to sell.

$1100 shipped, less than the cost to build, and must ship to an FFL that accepts from a private person. I accept cash, MO and personal checks. No trades or PayPal. Contact me with any questions and thanks for looking. Sorry for the crappy pics.
