Sir;
The 98 Mauser is the finest action on the planet. Those made after WWI; between WWI and WWII were the finest made. I especially like the VZ24 action!
ALL HIGH INTENSITY CARTRIDGES WORK AT ROUGHLY THE SAME PRESSURE! The Germand load ammo for the 98 at almost 50,000 C.U.P.!
I have built 9.3X62s, 9.3sX64 and 416 Taylors and have absolutely no problems. However, yjere is more to rebarreling a 98 than just screwing a barrel in it!
