I was looking at using a Bell & Carlson stock for a Mauser 98 standard length action. This action was made by FN and its a commercial version.
One stock in particular from Bell & Carlson, a thumbhole "monte carlo" #T101, will fit the japanese & US receivers ok, but the german receivers need extensive modifications.
The "german" receivers that they speak of, are they referring to the Mauser 98? Early versions of the Weatherby from the 1950's used Mauser 98 style receivers produced by FN in their "SOUTHGATE" model rifles.
Later models used receivers based somewhat on the Mauser 98 but not 100%.
Has anyone on the board used one of these stocks with the Mauser 98 receiver? If so, how much work was involved?
Thanks,
CI
