416 Ruger in a Mauser 98
Any solid recomendations on what Mauser actions to use, and if your telling me I need a Argentine do you have an extra one laying around.

Any standard 98, may want to have heat treated, it depends on the action.


"There is a bloody brave little animal called the honey badger in Africa. It may be the meanest animal in the world. It kills for malice and for sport, and it does not go for the jugular-it goes straight for the groin. It has a hell of a lot in common with the modern American woman."

So a factory 798 might not be a bad way to go.

in a VZ-24 one may want to trim the case back about 1/16th inch in order to seat 400 grain Hornady bullets to the cannelure to crimp them and still get them into the magazine unaltered!

At least I did!.....and yes.....I had it heat treated regardless of it's original state!

IMO it's an excellent way to go....or a magnum Chuck Daly or Magnum Mark X

The magazine in my Vz-24 limits my reloads to a max overall cartridge length of 3.24"!
Is this long enough for a 416 Ruger?
