I almost bought one of these about a year ago. Still need to get around to it. Awesome video!

You need one! They are pretty fun rifles!

Working on my czech mauser sporter rifle. Very interesting video.

[@PearceBrothersGearGuide]

Thanks!

I love the accuracy of my M48 variant, but it struggles to feed FMJ spitzers from the magazine and almost refuses to feed cast bullets.

[@PearceBrothersGearGuide]

That's really odd for a mauser 98 variant to have feed issues like that. If the feed ramp hasn't been messed with I would look at the extractor, follower or follower spring. Sometimes parts can be worn/damaged with older firearms.

@@PearceBrothersGearGuide Thanks, I’ll take another look at all those. This was a Mitchell’s I bought about 22 years ago and have only put about 500 rounds through. I have noticed that the magazine doesn’t sit flush with the receiver. It’s a little proud on both sides.

[@robertseafield5810]

Good info.
Handloads may improve accuracy.

[@PearceBrothersGearGuide]

Yes I'm sure I could improve accuracy/ performance with good handloads

[@schadenfreude191]

How did you mount the scope. Was there any drilling involved? Also Allerberger's book was excellent.

[@PearceBrothersGearGuide]

I mounted it via original scope rings so yes there was some drilling/taping required.

[@schadenfreude191]

@@PearceBrothersGearGuide I thought so, was trying to decide between this type of mount and a side rail mount. Both involves drill/tap. Freaks me out to do, but I wish to shot with my father at vintage sniper competition. Good video
