"I ask because, prior to WWI, Mauser did make M98 actions for Rigbys that had a slanted magazine and were specifically designed for the .303 British. Then, following on from that, a number of German gunsmiths started making M98s in .303 British, using the same action, but only for the German market - yes quite odd, don't you think?"
