Hi all,
I could use some help identifying a large-ring '98 mauser style action I inherited from my grandfather. It doesn't have any markings other than a four digit serial number with the second digit rotated 90 degrees counter clockwise. It measures about 8.525" from the front of the receiver ring to the back of the tang. The distance between the screws is about 7.83". It has been rebarreled to .244 Remington and the barrel appears to have a cut at 3 O'clock for the extractor.
I can't find any description that fit this action, it seems to be an intermediate length ( yugo?) but with screw spacing closer to a true '98. Any help is appreciated.
