[QUOTE="PBR driver, post: 1141659, member: 20780"] :cool:All Small Ring Mauser (Except the Small RING 98) should only be chambered into the original caliber or one of the same pressures such as if it was a 8x57 then one could go .300 Savage, 6.5x55mm, 7x57mm. Yes I have seen some in .243 ect. but this is dancing with the devil on his own ground. The only non 98 that one could possibly build a slightly higher pressure generating cartridge on is the Swedish Mauser's and no other . One still needs to use very good judgment in choosing the caliber. There are just to many other stronger actions out there which are made of modern steels with the proper strength to hold the pressures generated with modern powders to destroy a weaker and historically significant rifle design. Any one that would do so is a gun crank and is dangerous! [/QUOTE]
