Guns, Dogs and Blades QnA

Been a while since I chimed in over here. Figured I'd share my latest winter project. Mauser 96 rebarrled with a shaw 24" 6.5x55. Cut welded and shaped the bolt. All I have left is fitting the barreled action to the stock and fitting a scope friendly safety. I also have a video series on YouTube on this project if anyone is interested I'll post them here

Thanks so much for the post, I am just now back reading and trying to catch up after a couple weeks on the work tread mill! Love watching the build. Looks like a heavy barrel? What is the intended use for this one?
