I finally received my 146 M98 9.3x62 from the gunsmith after a rechamber from 9.3x57. I also had the original bolt handle changed to the shape of original sporter Mauser. The handle I had was a basic bent over bolt. Unlike my M46 that was the classic straight slant Mauser shape. I am now, after reading the info from 9.3, thinking of rebedding the stock with glass bedding. Another friend advised me of the potential for splitting.
Very nice rifles, great NA and African hunting photos. I hope to follow suite.
