A Full House of Mausers

[yumastepside]

My old M96 6.5x55, a lot of years and a lot of animals

....not a Mauser but 7x57 rimmed in two of its various incarnations, now restocked ,again

What I like about those three Mauser calibers is they do just enough and do it very well. No extra fuss, boom or bother, just monotonous reliability in getting the job done every time!

E.J Churchill 7x57 mm Mauser , built on a Yugoslavian M98 military surplus action . It’s accounted for the last of my three Royal Bengal Tigers , in 1989 . As well as truckloads of Chital deer , Kakar deer and jungle boar over the years .

Yeah , you can’t really name a bigger genius in the firearms world than Paul Mauser .

Great rifle with stories to tell...but I suspect you have gotten your money's worth out of that recoil pad, pardon my nosiness...

That’s a beauty , Per H . I think yours has a 5 round magazine capacity . Yours looks like the stripper clip ear guides have been ground off , in order to make it look sporterized .

It is 5 shot, gunsmith put the Leupold standard mount on it, as not to have to machine off the rear top for the clip slot on it.
