Re: Hunting rifle pics
Dave, I love the Mauser action. I have two sporterized Mausers. One is chambered in 35 Whelen and the other is 6.5x55. For the 35 Whelen I bought a short chambered Adams and Bennet barrel from Midway and finished the chamber myself on the lathe. I sent it out to Alhmans to have it coated and have them install a muzzle brake. I had someone do a tactical bolt handle on it too. The 6.5x55 has a barrel from Brownells. Both my Mausers are upstate, but I'll look for some pics.

Re: Hunting rifle pics
Is a 6.8 wylde the same as a 6.8 SPC II? Just tighter tolerances from the 6.8 SPC?

ALL 6.8 ammo is the same size. All 6.8 chambers are the same size. All factory ammo will fit in a 6.8SPC, SPCII or ARP chamber. The only difference in the chambers is the length of the freebore. The length of the freebore can determine how accurate the barrels are. The 1:11.25 twist rate will accurately shoot any bullet from 80-120gr and most 130s. Solid copper bullets like the Barnes and Cavity Back work better in the 3R 1:10 barrels which will accurately shoot anything from 80-150gr. NOT 1 company loads factory 6.8 SPCII ammo. Since none of the companies will load factory ammo to the higher velocity I have done what I could to increase the velocity with the barrel and chamber design. The 5R and 3R 6.8 barrels sold here normally produce 60-100fps more than the common 11 twist 4 groove barrels when the same factory ammo is used in both types of barrels. The original 6.8 SPC chamber is comparable to the 223 chamber. The ARP chamber is comparable to the 223 Wylde chamber. The 6.8 SPCII chamber is comparable to the 5.56 Nato chamber. |
