I have been toying with the Idea of one last custom rifle. I have had a few made up mostly on the 700 Remington action because I used LH bolts. I have sort of gone back to shooting right hand bolts though I still have to shoot left handed. (NO right eye). With the bad left shoulder I can use the right hand as well as I can the LH. I have access to a couple of Mauser 98 actions. Whats your expierence or opinion on useing one of these VS one of the good commerial actions? I am considering the 338-06 or 6.5-06. Its going to have a 26 inch barrel. Of that I am sure
