Revisiting this thread, been 9 months and I'm still thinking it was a good idea. Currently down to my main rifle(8x57is), a backup rifle(.300 Win Mag) and my 10/22. Of course I have a pair of .270 Winchesters in the safe built for when my boys get big enough/mature enough to use them safely and a featherweight .257 Roberts in case my daughter takes an interest. I also have a spare 10/22 for one of the kids, I'll still need to get a couple more .22s eventually.

Building a 6.5 on that spare action I had in the safe, not sure yet if I'll do X55, X57, /06 or Gibbs right now.(Have everything but the reamer/gauges) May not even keep it after it's finished, don't need it, just enjoying building it.

I don't always shoot Mausers, but when I do...I prefer VZ-24s.
