Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Interarms Mark X?

I'll get a few pics of it tomorrow, stock looks a lot like a Ruger (except with cheek piece).

They are nice rifles, like others have said. Some actually had very nice stocks and finishes on them. I've had some that looked like the glossy Remington 700 BDL's. As for accuracy, one of the most accurate rifles I had was a MKX 243 win. That was a shooting sob, but the stock did not fit me well, since I shoot left handed. I ended up selling it to someone that wanted it more than I did, but I still miss it for how well it shot. I'm sure yours will be just fine. If not, glass bed it and freefloat the barrel, work up a good load and I'm sure it will shoot lights out..

Here are a few pics...

You did well!

I think the Whitworth Express rifles were as nice a working grade DG rifle as any I've seen.

I have built 3 Mark X's in 30-06 and a 300 WM for sons, a 243 for a daughter in law. They shoot very well, under an inch fairly easily and sometimes much less. They have accounted for a pile of whitetails. I obviously wouldn't say they are equal to pre 64 Win customs by any means but they are fine serviceable hunting rifles

Another of many commercial 98s out there with very good steel.

Very nice rifle. The stock appears to have been reshaped or more likely replaced. It appears to have a semi-beavertail fore end with an angled tip and the pistol grip seems cut a little differently than I remember. Could be wrong. But a fine piece.

One other thing, I believe you have a custom barrel as well. The lug looked a little short to me and the 257 Rob stamp didn’t seem right. I checked a few things and confirmed Interarms chamber markings from the factory start with “Cal”, as in Cal .270. At least all I’ve had or seen pictures of. Not a negative in any way. If you have a custom stock and a rebarrel you very well may have a slicked up action.

very nice looking rifle Jason, TY for sharing

Made in England just like ones I had except mine had black fore end cap like a BDL Remington ..

I like my Whiworth version a lot. Shoots the 235’s and 270’s quite well.

Not made in England. Made in what was then Yugoslavia.


Jason280, the Mk X was not offered in .257 Rob in factory guise. It was however offered in .25-06. In any case, nice rifle in a fun cartridge.

Ditto mine shoots very well also, the factory irons are superb. The other Mark x is a real special rifle to me 1 of 5000 or so made in Salt Lake city by Emdeko . A mark X action with a 5 groove PO Ackley barrel in 270 win. 24 " and is quite a shooter. PO Ackley did the barreling for Emdeko.

Awhile back i was looking for a boomer, found a 375 Weatherby custom Whitworth.

Interesting, I'll need to pull the stock and see if there are any other markings.

My Whitworth likes the 300 grain Sierra.

Slm9s, maaaan thats a nice rifle. Love the stock

OP, nice find as well!

The McMillan stock was a nice fit more or less a classic shape. If a 30 mm scope is attached the cheek piece may be a tiny bit low.

Here is a 7 Rem mag with a 1" leupold
