Would the HVA be considered a Mauser? Updated M96 with M98 length and third lug, but still small ring.
Mine came in the form of a JC Higgins 51L 308 that was some beat up. Recoil mortise block had busted loose from the stock and the tang was split. Bought it for a donor, but used accraglass and pins to replace the wood block and glass the action. Shoots too good to change now. Currently using it as a cast bullet platform.
