Domoulin Herstal - What is this action?
https://www.trademe.co.nz/a.as...13FBF&rewritten=true

I saw this here in NZ and the guy says it is a 10 year old rifle & double square bridge action!

I would have thought that it is more like a 50 year old action

I have one new in the box waiting for me to decide what to do with it.
Sunny Hill makes rings for it but they are pricey. Anyone else know what rings will fit it?

I put Talley bases on the one I had. Not my first choice but I couldn't afford the Sunny Hill so I had to go that route.

Naki,

I also was wondering that. Did a search on Google on those actions as the link was broken on the post above.

From what I could find, those actions are NOT made in Belgium. They were machined in...China for Dumolin Herstal, so I wouldn't want to spend what the guy on TM is asking!

I have been looking for a good commercial Mauser action for a custom .375 Ruger build. Picked up a Pre 64 Winchester M70 30-06 length that has had the bolt face opened up for Magnum.

Which Talleys fit?

I misunderstood, I thought you found some rings to fit the grooved receiver.

Sorry I'm a little late to the party. I used the Talley bases and rings. I would buy another action in a heartbeat if someone made a descent ring.
