I have a 7 MM Weatherby on a Commercial FN action, a .300RUM in a SS M700.

To me, there is nothing better that a custom rifle on a Mauser Action. Commercial FN are not available now.

Yeah, with a trigger, a hinged floorplate, a new barrel in .257 Wthby. a different stock, opening up the bolt face, and and 2.5 X 8 Varx. III on it, then bluing it, I would have more than the cost of a new rifle in it.

However, that is what I want. It is a lot like having a wife, a girlfriend, and a new Corvette, and all three of them 2 months late.
