.376 Steyr pedigree
My .416 Aagaard on a VZ-24 is off to the barrel plumber for a second barrel in .376 Steyr and it got me thinking. If you own a .376 is it an actual factory rifle or did you take an action and make your own?<BR><BR>Seems like it's more a custom rifle caliber than a factory flavor. <img src="http://forums.accuratereloading.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_wink.gif" alt="Wink" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin:;)-->Make mine factoryI rolled my ownI like the caliber so much I own both types

the factory rifles aren't in the most "traditional" shapes or materials, or barrel lengths

mine is a 1936 mexican mauser, pacnor barrel, high grade english, 25"

my next one will be on a m48, 21 to 23" pipe, and probably a LIGHT stock
