A few years back, I scored a Fed-Ord Mauser 98 that had probably been swapped over to a military profile .308 barrel back in the '80's. I expect little more than the barrel was changed because it's not the most reliably-feeding bolt gun you'll run across. Would like to get it behaving properly.
Anybody familiar with the Israeli and other 7.62 NATO conversions? Specifically what exactly was done in making the change? Fact, not theory please.
