I traded for a 25-308 wildcat on a mauser action today and was wandering if you could advise me on what scope bases I would need. There are a lot of choices on bases (98, 96, FN, etc). The action looks to be the Turkish large ring small shank. It is marked TC, ASFA, ANKARA, K KALE, 1940, SN31xxx. Sorry if you are purist, I didn’t cut if up and sporterize it and customize it, I just traded for it. It is already drilled and tapped.

Is this considered a mauser 98?

What is an FN?

Any help would be appreciated.
