I have had an eye out for an old Mauser action to rebarrel to 9.3x62. It would have a fixed peep sight and not be setup for a scope. Classic pattern stock, mil style safety and loadable with stripper clips.

I think a donar I found will work. It is bluing worm but not pitted at all. It has byf 42 on the bridge. What does that code mean? Is it a likely to be a good action?
