[QUOTE="shortgrass, post: 2293969, member: 24284"] The barreled action needs to be in the hands of a gunsmith that knows Mausers so it can be determined what cartridge up-grades may be possible. Be aware, Mausers are not a drop-in when it comes to changing chamberings. If you go with the .284, be aware that it will not drop-in and feed without alterations. Also, the mag box was not designed for the 'newer, fatter' cartridges, and mag capacity will be reduced . It is best to remove the barrel to determine the condition of the locking lug abutments for any set-back. [/QUOTE]
