[QUOTE="Dan B, post: 117612, member: 367"] The assembled Mauser 98 that I bought cost me $200. It's a .243 Winchester, Jaeger trigger, unknown barrel and stock. The barrel is comparable to a 26" Savage varmint taper...but is 25.5" long. The stock is wood and shaped to a semi-varmint/BR style...very comfortable. It also had an old 10X Bushnell scope. Overall the gun is in fair condition for looks but 100% mechanically. Keeping the budget theme...I swapped the scope for a 6-24X44 TR Tasco and worked a load in LC .308 brass sized to .243. It will shoot 75gr VM's well under minute-o-half gallon milk jug at 500yds. To me...the price on your piece seems a little high. But would be right on had the dies been supplied. [/QUOTE]
