My uncle recently acquired a mark x action brand new in the box. It was one of the ones made in england. Any experience with these actions, BTW he's thinking of building a 257 bob.

They are a very good commercial 98 style action. Some don't like the trigger. They all can use a touch of smoothing. I happen to prefer the older version with the release in the guard. The cross pin release was the later ones. Some of the lalter ones also had a shorter firing pin fall. It will be perfect for a 257 Bob hunting rifle.

I don't think any were actually made in England they just passed through on the way to the states.

great actions, same thread as the mauser 98

those aren't made in england, though they might be proofed there.. markX is interarms is zavasta, aint made in mancheter, though i hear some were actually prooved there

They work, but nothing special about them.

He didn't happen to buy it at the Tulsa gun show did he? I sold one while I was there.

No, alabama.
