I like rollers; who did the CCH? Do you do it?

As Monty Python used to say, "now for something totally different." I like it!


On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch...
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!
- Rudyard Kipling

Life grows grim without senseless indulgence.

I use Turnbull for all Case Hardening/Coloring too.
For whomever asked; that isn't a 7mm action; it is an earlier one. Side extractor. 7mms/1902 has a rotary extractor and no scalloped frame top.

Looks like the 1897 version of the 7mm, which had the straight extractor. I suspect that the action top was modified, since both the 1897 and 1902 had round tops.

I was referring to the first rifle. The second was definitely an earlier action with the scalloped frame top.

Both are very nice!

HUH? Are you thinking two different rifles here?

I see one and it did not start out as a 7mm.
That serial number is not one of those.

Jim,

The rifle in the latter post sure looked to me like it had the scalloped frame top, not an octagon top. Did I just not see it right?

The octagon top action could have been made from any non-scalloped military action. I have one that looks very similar, made from one of the Argentine actions. But the block looked to me like like it came from an early 1897 7mm. I'm not aware of any but the 1897 and 1902 that the operating lever that protruded to the side.
