Where can I find a stock/scope mts M1916 Spanish Mauser .308
« on: November 04, 2005, 10:01:00 AM »
Wood or sythetic is ok as the furniture on mine needs to be replaced for this good shooter. Also what scope mounts will fit these? I like a set of see thru mounts.

TIA

Does your feed Ok. Mine will not feed a standard OAL
.308! I have to seat the bullet out to make it longer.
They were originally 7mm Mauser which is a longer round
and mine simply will not feed the shorter .308.
It sure shoots them good though.. This is my "Knock Around"
rifle and it really loves 168 Gr HPs loaded down to about 2050 fps.
Kind of like a Bolt action 30-30 in power but inside of about
150 yards it is quite enough for any Whitetail.

Stocks made for M96 Mausers work for the M93s also. Same for scope bases, i.e for "small ring Mausers.
