GBF, stainless barrels can be blued, if needed

Time to confess your sins?

rigbymauser, your projects sounds interesting. What actions will you use for these?

Hollis500- Yes, from rat to big game is the idea behind my set. You got any pictures of your mauser’s? 505 Gibbs is far to much hot sauce for my taste.

NE450No2,
African on the list for sure- unfortunately most of my hunting will be outside "the dark continent" Except a few species most African animals can be taken with "normal" calibres used for sheep, bear, moose, elk deer and wild boar etc.

A 9,3X70 would fit without opening the action

My smith has built a few 404 Jeffery on standard mauser actions, open a few millimetres in the rear would be no problem on a ZG-47 since factory magazine is 89mm. Altering the actions look by slotting to ease loading is not an option. I would rather use a magnum mauser and 416 Rigby. A rifle dedicated for dangerous game built on a magnum would be perfect, a great reason to procure one more toy and annoy the local Gestapo authorities

ZG-47 was originally chambered for a number of metric calibres and 270, 3006. Military cartridges can be a hindrance in some countries- Belgium, France and Spain got some restrictions.

Cheers
Johan
