handwerkinterarms x question
I just picked up a mark x mannlicher carbine in 30'06 and need to find out what my options are for rings/bases? It was imported by interarms. I will be mounting a leupy 4x33 on it.
Thanks

jjmpcongrats handwerk, sounds like a nice rifle , i used a new markx action to build my 338 w/mag. weaver bases and burris Z rings go together very nicely.

The one MKX mannlicher that I have owned used the same basic action as the normal MKX I had no problem getting a low ring to work.
Not saying that there wasn't a spoon version. I just don't remember it at the moment.

handwerkIt has a "butter knife" bolt handle. I hope I can atleast get into medium rings.

It is always a good way when I learn something new or at the very least refreshed my swiss cheese memory.
