I am having the shroud on the rear of the bolt, the grip cap and the buttplate case/colored. Any suggestions on what improvements to the rings or bases???

I would recommend S&K rings and bases for your Mauser. ![[Linked Image]](https://s20.postimg.cc/ys8xr854d/IMG_1087.jpg)

I would recommend S&K rings and bases for your Mauser. +1. I have a set on my original FN Supreme that I took to Namibia a couple of months ago.

You may want to check the S&K website, I believe they also have traditional split ring for those bases. Not sure and have no experience with them?
As far as case hardening that I don't know either, best ask an expert? The rings seem to made of a soft malleable steel and maybe case hardening will make them brittle?

I've never seen those case hardened. They are about the slickest rings going. What's the story on your rifle? Shrap, I'd call the company and see what they think. Those get bent a good bit, fitting them on the scope. DF

Dirtfarmer,
The first rifle with the S&K rings and bases is a 1909 Argentine action with a Douglas #1 contour 1/8 twist barrel in 240 Wby mag. Stocked in black walnut.
The second close up pic is my G33/40 with a Douglas featherweight in 30-06.
I built both myself.
