Re: 8x51 ???

LOL Huvius, I bet you did!

Attempting to get back to Mausers....

Either way it sounds like you have a good foundation! As to the 46s, their quality is outstanding. That goes for Mauser's and the variety alluded to by Huvius! Having used both Husqvarna and Carl Gustav 96 actions (sporting and military models) for projects they're just simply outstanding to work with. I do have several 46s and 146s that haven't been touched and I'll keep them that way.

Fraser typically used the 93 action with minimal differences such as the flat-bottomed bolt face, and some changes to the gas escape, and the cocking piece. Let me know when you want to get started! And don't worry about the practicality of such a rifle in America's Serengeti. We can do Fraser mounts. They look quite nice when paired with an appropriate vintage scope. Speaking of Fraser projects, I'll be shaping up a trigger guard and bottom metal tonight in the Fraser style. I'll post pics.
