Mauser M48 .308 Target Rifle
i guess i can brag.. but ya notice the name im using "Mauser 98K".. it is because i love all things Mauser.. in fact here is my girl.. i built her a couple years back..Attachment 201079 her name is Vera.. she has a twin sister named Matilda..
action is a short action M48 Yugo Preduzece 44. barrel is a Norwegian forged target barrel from the Konigsberg plant in Norway.. it is the same barrels that went onto the M67 target/sniper rifles. stock is the original that i cut down and worked the barrel grove out. barrel is free floated entire length.. got a custom turned down bolt handle and a muzzle break of my own design with top porting. you can shoot full power loads and there is no real muzzle rise or felt recoil. scope is a Leatherwood 4-16x44mm with target turrets and parallax adjustment.. i got a cheek piece/rise on the back of the stock covered with a canvas sheath that used to be a mechanics apron that puts my eye at the perfect spot. sling is seat belt..yes im a big ol wuss when it comes to the sling, but on a 12lb rifle the skinny slings dig in too much.. the scope rail is a one piece B-Square dovetail because i do not like the two pieced rails.. the entire rifle come in at a whopping 50 inches long.. i don't care what people say, i like a long barrel. i use H414 powder to load my .308, which is a slow powder and great for long barrels.
