I built a .243 on a new FN Mauser Supreme barreled action that looked exactly like that. I had always wanted the Browning but couldn't afford it so that was the only way I could get something similar. It was in a Fajen stock that was a much better grade then what I paid for so it ended up to be a super beautiful gun also. (Then I sold it like an idiot).

The old Brownings on the Mauser action were the cream of the crop back then IMHO. Even with the pre-64 Model 70's etc.
