Well, I picked up that Interarms Mauser today. It's a .243 on a Mark X action, marked "Manchester England" on the receiver. The barrel is about 23" long and the gun is in mint condition. There is a date stamped on it 1990. The action has a CZ logo on it, but when I took it out of the stock, it said "Made in Yugoslavia". It has an adjustable trigger and a two position, fore-and-aft safety. It's in a CHEAP Ramline stock.
I was thinking about rebarreling it to .308, but think I'll play around with it in .243 for coyotes. I'm thinking about the following modifications:
- new stock (synthetic - haven't decided on the brand, yet)
- adjust trigger
- 3-position safety
- scope
- maybe later, have it rebarreled
Anyone have any suggestions on this? Any ideas?
Thanks,
Steve
