  1. If it was a jap barrel they have cut some off the back,and could possibly rechamber'd it for 308. only way to know bore is to have it checked.could be done with set of calipers would be close enough to tell you. Interested to know myself.
  2. It my have been 30cal mg barrel someone turned on lathe to fit.
  3. Thanks I'll try it out reduced and work up to were I feel comfortable. I found some more online. Some where using military brass and primers for some of the loads. Thanks for the input.
  4. Those are really nice. I like how the mauser looks. Once I get the 308 finished I think Im gonna start one in the 9.3x62 it would be a nice addition to the flock.
  5. Thanks, I was stoked to find it . the metal is pretty good. I'll probably change the sights on it to a more sporter look,as soon as I learn how to do them properly and not get them off center...
  6. I really like that rifle. Been thinking of making up a mauser in 9.3x62. Very interesting caliber. That person should be proud of that,you do some super work.
  7. Found this sporter Jap T99 today at the gunshow,someone done the bolt handle on it and did pretty good job. bore is pretty good make good shooter. all for $75.00..
  8. Whats the going rate for getting a new bolt handle welded on and cleaning up the weld? where the reciever wont have to be notched real deep or notched at all?
  9. Very Nice, Like how you done the Turk stock. May have to make me a 8mm/06.
  10. Ive fired a Ishapore 2A1 with commercial 308 and had no problems with it at all ,was very accurate with the iron sights. The cases showed no sign of sever bulging. They looked pretty good. The rifle was in very good to excellent condition. but thats not to say there could be some that are wore out and would be unsafe. The rifle I had now belongs to a friend of mine that is still using it and has added a scope to it and synthetic stock...
  11. Anyone got a favorite load for this round using IMR or Hodgden powder? Trying to find a accurate load.. Thanks
  12. Do you have to bake the duracoat or is it the kind that you just let dry on its own? Will it stay on pretty good?

    I'll mark it down,where will it be held at? I have a soft spot for japanese rifles. Im looking to get a T38 action or barreled reciever to build a sporter out of and gonna get a complete rifle one of these days. I live closer to fulton than tupelo. I live in small community called dorsey..let me know where it will be held at and I'll try to attend if nothing happens.

    Mig Welding?

    We have that antispatter stuff at work and looks like vicks salve.It works. They also have a liquid that is green that has to dry before you can use.Never thought of putting on part to keep the spatter off.Your lucky on the deal..
