I just am in the process of finishing up a FN Mauser in 9.3 x 62 for a customer.

Replace the military bow with a 1909 inside release, and hinged the floorplate
New scope bases cut for Talley rings
One of my M70 3 position safeties, and a Timney # 201 trigger
A new bolt handle

Very nice build. I’m sure the customer is going to love it.

Very, very nice. Looking forward to the final finish.

Yes very nice and tastefully done.

I love everything about it!!!

Very nice! But, blued before stock work, or is it getting a plastic stock?

Stock work is all done, that why its blued
Customer wanted to reuse the 1950 FN factory stock with a couple of tweaks.

I still have to checker the bolt handle in a 2 panel shape.

That would explain the hefty recoil lug on the barrel

Looks great!
Can’t wait to see the finished product.

Beautiful work Jim, all 3 of us are fortunate to have you building up our barreled actions. My Whelen’s looking great, thanks for sending me pics.

Wow that is the one I want

Outstanding, Ive allways admired your work, recall selling a 500 for you some years ago, and was impressed with your big bore stock work..

I had time to finish checkering the bolt handle in two panels, here is a picture of that.



A few more notes about this rifle.

I had to re-machine the inside of the guard to accept 5 rounds of ammo.
Then rework the feed rails for flawless feeding with the 3 types of ammo the customer supplied
It holds 5 rounds in the magazine with no effort, and then drop a cartridge in the chamber, depress the top round, and close the bolt on cartridge # 6

The work on the factory stock, was to replace the rear swivel stud with a Dakota swivel base and add the Pachmayr red pad, inlet for the new extra recoil lug on the barrel

Customer is planning on adding a Leupold 2.5 x 8 scope to round it out



Enjoy

Very nice. I love the idea of using an old frame but giving it new and improved internals. Sort of the firearms equivalent of a resto-mod car. Well executed.

Vrry clean and well thought out

A top notch working rifle from a true master, would love to have it.

gotta love the FN Supreme, great looking build, one of the greatest actions ever!!

Looks like a dandy!

Wonderful! 1909 Floor metal looks great.
How do you manage to checker steel right up to the border without running over (bolt knob)?

"I had to re-machine the inside of the guard to accept 5 rounds of ammo."

If you remachined the guard, how many 375 Ruger rounds could you fit?

This Jim Wisner FN Supreme C Ring Mauser in 9.3X62MM along with its matching rifle in .375 H&H are now for sale in the classifieds. Not sure where the photos went.
