Beautiful....it is about time! I remember when you started on this project.

I noticed that you respected the original design and did not remove the charger hump when installing the scope mounts. Can stripper clips still be used as intended?

Thanks gentlemen!!! I'm very happy.

Harry,
Yes, you remember??!! I still have the reloading tables you gave me. I promise you his next picture will be with something with holes

Kurt, you are correct!! I tried to keep it "original style", it's a pity the bad quality of the pictures, doesn't show his real beauty.

Thanks again

Very very nice rifle! If is shoots half as good as it looks you should be very happy.

What ammo are you planning on feeding it?

I want one! I want the exact same rifle, except i would want the cheekpiece on the other side (southpaw you know). Gorgeous rifle!

Excellent wood for the stock! And a nice pick of caliber (coming from someone who lives in a country full of 9.3x62 worshipers )

Beautiful rifle. I guess you will show if to the wild boars soon and see what they think

What load/bullet have you decided to use?

Cheers

Thanks gentlemen.

Boghossian,
I'll put a low magnification Leupold but most of times I will just go comando

Johan,
I will also introduce him to the water buffaloes, for pigs and deers I'll be using 270' grains speers, 286 round noses PMP and whatever I put my hands on, for buffs 286 Barnes solids

Lorenzo,

Beautiful rifle. I cannot wait to drag it through the mud after buffalo in Uruguay. Just joking! Please have a stiff drink on me after dealing with my sister in law today.

Hello Al F

Hello Ray,

Not bad at all. Been hunting with Lorenzo in Uruguay and
in B.C. for spring bear this spring. Thinking about not going to Zim in August because of the news from there.

Best regards,

Lorenzo, A beautiful rifle. I have a similar project underway, but am a long way from being finished.

Can you tell me about the stock, please? What did you use?

Also, which LW barrel contour did you use?

Thanks. -Fred

Fantastic, Lorenzo. Like the styling on that rifle, very classic. Hard to beat the chambering too. I like the retained charger hump. I have vowed never to grind down the charger hump on a military mauser again.

Best,
Todd
