[QUOTE="jmatson, post: 218253, member: 12025"] The Reminton 798 is made in Serbia and imported by Remington under the Remington trademark. They are made at the same factory as the Interarms Mark X and are a very fine rifle. Being a comercial Mauser, they are very easy to service and are very reliable. Just about any M98 action part will work on 798 or a Mark X with very little fitting. I have three Mark X's, two 375 H&H's and a 404 Jeffery. All are highly customized and very accurate. That being said, they are not the best action for making an extremely accurate Ultra long range rifle like say on a Mod 700 or a 40X or even one of those very expensive custom actions. However if you are hunting in an area that has nasty critters and nasty weather conditions the Mauser is the way to go. I have quite a few friends that are PH's Africa and they have a Mauser or a pre 64 Mod 70 mostly Mausers. Happy Shooting! [/QUOTE]
