I really like those two 7xs' buy Nelson. I looked at the bolt handle and thought, Man I've done one that looked like that. The action is a square bridge small ring Mexican 98 intermediate length newly machined in steel that I did about 6 to 8 months ago. The bolt is an original Mauser bolt, I welded the handle on it and shaped it up, Safety and bottom are titanium. It's got a titanium fireing pin. I've got it about half way stocked into a high tech synthetic right now. It's a 6.5 x 284.

Timan--

You hit the nail on the head with the position, shape, and length of that bolt handle. It is exactly what I will be having installed on my rifle. I wanted it to be an original Mauser pear shaped handle, 90 degrees straight down to the front 1/3 of the trigger gaurd bow, and with about 1/2 of the knob past the metal to wood line.

PERFECT!
