Re: 375 H+H mauser 98
I like it. How's the recoil on that? I've never fired a rifle bigger than the 30-06. I've shot a 7mm mag, but it seemed to kick a lot less than the 06.

not yet,has no sights on it.But it was head spaced and fired by the smith that assembled the barreled action .Test fired only,not for accuracy..

Very nice looking rifle. Is that all in the white? I would love to see that with express sights.

That rifle will be just the thing when global warming drives the polar bears down your way.

A rifle that nice looking needs no reason.

Re: 375 H+H mauser 98
John, tell me some more about that action. I see the stripper clip slot, but what's the cut out on the left side of the action? Don't you think .375 H&H is a bit of overkill?
