Mehul: Here's the story. When I first saw this rifle, it was described as being chambered for the 6.5x54MS by the seller. I wondered if it could possibly be the very rare large ring Kurz action chambered for the Mauser 6.5x54. Sometimes people don't know what they have. Only one of these has surfaced and is owned by Jon Speed. (see page 115 of his first book) With gun in hand, it turned out to be an intermediate action and chambered for the 6.5x54MS. The MS round seats perfectly but the Mauser case is .025" larger in dia. at the base and will not seat. Nothing ventured, nothing gained is my motto. Had it turned out to be a Kurz, it would have been a wonderful and valuable discovery. Even so, I think it's a great rifle and it will stay in the collection.
