Picked up this barreled action at a gun show this weekend. I wasn't really looking for a new project, but as I passed the table I saw the words "30 Newton" on the side of a dusty barrel and stopped in my tracks. I have always been interested in the Newtons and find their history fascinating. I paid 75 bucks for the barreled action. The action is an FN mauser action, the barrel is an octagonal taper made by - who knows. It was covered in a thick layer of dust and once I got it home it cleaned up nice. Both the action and the barrel are new. The action has nothing on it so, other than the barrel I am starting from scratch. This will be a long tern project as I have so many other projects going on right now. Nonetheless, it will be my first build up of a bolt gun.
Anyone got a set of .30 Newton dies or brass they want to part with?
