1954 Husky Mauser 98 variant. I bought this rifle from original owners estate over 15 years ago. Fabulous rifle that I successfully killed some game with. A small crack appeared on bottom of the beautiful wood stock. I sent the rifle to Randy Selby (Randy’s Custom Rifles - Wyoming) where the action/barrel was professionally fitted and bedded into a fiberglass stock with decelerator recoil pad. Trigger was adjusted and it was topped with a Leupold VX-3i 4.5-14x40mm 30mm Boone and Crocket reticle in Talley QD mounts.
Randy confirmed bore/barrel is in excellent shape. He worked up some loads but rifle is luckily extremely accurate with factory Nosler Accubond 130 gr. ammo. Subsequent to the upgrades a local stock repair guy told me the wood stock can easily be repaired. Go figure. I’ve had a hard time parting with this one but for whatever reasons I’m just not a 270 fan. I never hunted it after the custom work and it has low shot count altogether. I’m selling as a package including the original wood stock. As most of you have experienced this little project got expensive but I’m pricing at what I believe is fair below what all this actually cost. $2100 from my FFL to yours.
Those are smudge marks on the scope that rubbed off.
