Mauser Oberndorf 9.3x62

It would be a cardinal sin to alter a beautiful little gem like that . Leave it unmolested , please . Original Mauser Oberndorf bolt rifle actions are true rarities . My former client , the late Tom Bolack ( Governor of New Mexico , at the time ) used to own a beautiful Mauser Oberndorf bolt rifle , which had been re barrelled to .30-06 Springfield calibre . It was a really beautiful rifle .
 
beautiful
Stopped by the Gunsmith today to drop off more work and check on the status of my 9,3. Getting there now and starting to look like a rifle. Amazing how much better a custom built to fit stock feels on a rifle. Couple more months and she will be at home

Do whatever blows yer skirt up, you have the right stuff to work with...I personally would dress it up with iron sights, and QD tallesy and a 3X Leupold, steel butt platd or leather covered recoil pad, schnable forend and side panals, full or quarter rib, 4 down and one up the snout..something on that order anyway...Its one of my favorite calibers btw..the 286 Nosler or 300 gr swift at 2400 fps is death and destruction on the biggest ones.
 
Whats the status on this beutiful rifle? Is it finished yet?

Good Morning x84958
I have read your post about Jamy Traut and your hunt in Caprivi. I am planning such a hunt for 2026, Oct with Jamy.
Just a question , because I will combine Caprivi and Panorama for PG, is the daily rate the same the week long, I mean the one for Caprivi or when in Panorama it will be a PG rate ?
thank you and congrats for your story.
Best regards
Philippe from France

Hello Doug,
I am Philippe from France and plan to go hunting Caprivi in 2026, Oct.
I have read on AH you had some time in Vic Falls after hunting. May I ask you with whom you have planned / organized the Chobe NP tour and the different visits. (with my GF we will have 4 days and 3 nights there)
Thank in advance, I will appreciate your response.
Merci
Philippe
