[QUOTE="thekid, post: 2926971, member: 127885"] Hello all, I’m wanting to build a gun for a little bench shooting. Nothing past 1000 yards on the regular. I have an old JC Higgins model 50 that I picked up for $100. It shoots decent but I think it would be a good platform for a re-barrel. First of all I was wondering if the commercial fn Mauser action used the same barrels as the large ring Mauser action? I’m thinking of going with a McGowen 28” #4 contour barrel. In 6.5-284 Norma with a 1 in 7.5 twist. They offer them in large ring Mauser but fn Mauser. If they don’t I might move to a ruger m77 action or a 700 action. Any suggestions/ feedback would be appreciated. Thank you [/QUOTE]
