That Nyati looks like it has been in the magazine for a few shots. Is that a distortion in the pic or does the neck seem to have wrinkles in it?

it's a benchbetty, and might have been the first one I did... it's a FUBAR CULL and I was mucking about on my bench this evening.

Pretty well the McMillan and others like it are the only actions for this baby then, I wonder if one could rebate the rim and fit it on a granite arms action with it's .750 bolt diamter ??

Just the McMillan action does not look as sporting like as the big mauser varients IMHO.
