Interesting Variation on M 98 Action from Prechtl
      12/03/13 10:40 AM

I'm guessing that Gottfried Prechtl made this closed variation of the Mauser 98 design for his precision rifles - he started his career building sniper rifles on the earlier Sako actions after all. But it would be interesting to see if this more closed design takes off with hunters especially in 376 H&H and 416 R? from a solely theoretical viewpoint, they should be more rigid and accurate but more difficult to load especially if you have larger digits on your handa?

And, I wonder if any of our European members has seen / handled / shot / hunted with one of these?

Good hunting!
