Thank you very much. It doesn't have any rear sights so I'll have to get something regardless. I happen to have a 270 Bartlein bbl blank 24' magnum sporter contour is why I was asking about that. As long as it's a good quality mauser 98 I'll probably hang on to it and build it into something. If barrel is toast, maybe rebarrel to a 7x57. I take it this would be a large ring ?
