Here's a link to my 6.5x68 RWS.
……...
What about the 10.75x68 Mauser?




I have a Mauser 10.75x68 that is kind of a mongrel. Looks to be a Type B barreled action and slightly modified Type A stock; maybe the original stock was broken and a Type A stock fitted?
1920 production with a 4/20 proof stamp, light weight at 7lbs 8 oz (no scope), and 24" barrel. As may be expected it has pretty snappy recoil at that light weight.
Fun rifle, pictures a bit later.

The Original Mauser Type A stocks usually had the first letter of the rifle code stamped (burnt) in the barrel channel. It would be either the letter W or Y. My Mauser Type A Pattern No1 which started life as a 10.75x68 and is now a .404 Jeffery, has a W stamped inside the barrel channel.

I'm not sure if the other Mauser types had their stocks stamped with an identifying letter or not.
