W'SHEIL,
Don't give them any mad ideas about changing the barrel thread design on a pattern 98 Mauser!

I like the stock style, also looks similar to the Mauser magnums, brief images posted of them recently by NitroX.

What do you think about the small machine cut checkering designs on them? They look fully laser or cnc cut on the Mauser's. On the Highland Stalker the checkering looks like it has more hand work in it.

I think it is logical in this model that both makes have the same caliber range. Doesn't Mauser or Blaser own part of Rigby? Logical from a company perspective anyway.
