I have a barrel that was made for a Weatherby FN Deluxe rifle. It is chambered for 300 Wby, so needs a long '98 type action. I am wondering what other actions would accept the barrel without alteration, such as Interarms X, and other clones of '98 Mausers that have been opened for the longer cartridge. | ||

98 clones are very uniform, but I don't put weatherbys on military actions. So get a Mk10, new CZ, etc, for your barrel. You have a 51% (usually better) chance of the headspace being right, and an 8% chance of the sights indexing on top. So, your criteria of "without alteration"; no guarantee for sure. | |||

When you say new CZ, you mean Zastava, right? Mauser 98 and CZ 550 are different. Some folks, like me, might get them confused sometimes.  Matt FISH!!

 Actually, one of my customers, who is probably a potato peeler or sidewalk shoveler for the Canadian Military insists that I refer to Zastavas as: "Those damned Serbian clones of everyone's, old, outdated SHIT!" I've looked at their website and I have to admit that he may be on to something. LOL When I was a kid. I had the stick. I had the rock. And I had the mud puddle. I am as adept with them today, as I was back then. Lets see today's kids say that about their IPods, IPads and XBoxes in 45 years! Rod Henrickson | |||

Seems like those interarms MK X’s have a “CZ” in a circle. Matt FISH!!

Nupe. That's the ZZC in a circle. It stands for Zavodi Crvena Zastava !

Actually, this information is going to make my GI-Joe potato peeler ECSTATIC ! I can now show him how those, damned Serbians are not only making clones of everyone's, old, outdated SHIT! They have also taken to near cloning, CZs marketing emblem as well. That will send him right off the edge. He will be cracking walnuts in the wrinkles in his forehead when I tell him this! It will damned near kill him. This guy could be a master conspiracy theorist for the democrats if military kitchen life ever gets to strenuous for him! LOL Some days, you just have to make your own entertainment! When I was a kid. I had the stick. I had the rock. And I had the mud puddle. I am as adept with them today, as I was back then.
