Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Interarms Mark X Action

Did one of those many moons ago using a takeoff CZ550 barrel. I kept the CZ 3 leaf setup.

Also just completed one in 9,3x64. Siblings.

Recently completed a pair in 375 & 416 Ruger.

Back when I had plains game in Africa on the brain, I bought the Interarms Whitworth version in .375. It was a nice rifle and shot rather well, but was not "slick" like my FN and Browning Safaris. I'm sure a little lapping, work, and use would fix that. Good actions. Jack

Guys, in your opinions is the Interarms Mark X action better quality than the current Zastava actions?

I know that they are much the same, but wasn't the Interarms Mark X action made before the war in Yugoslavia ( now Serbia )
Or am I totally wrong?

Any updates appreciated

I have had a good look at some Mk X rifles and they do look a tad better finished, but that might have been because they were older and had been tricked up.

Functionally, I believe they would be identical.

Built this 6.5-06AI on a Mark X. Told my brother at the time, but before I tried, that it was "my 600 yard clay pigeon shooter".

I was right.

They are much better looking to me than the Zastavas to me. I had a beauty of one in 30-06, but sold it to TnBigBore. His father is making good use of it now, he returned the favor by selling me minty HVA.

If I had my pick I'd build on the Mark X over the Zastava but consider both good actions to build on.

Good looking Rifle, by the way what rings and bases are you using and what brand of stock is the action on?

I no longer own this rifle, sold it to another campfire member, but it was one of my favorites. I finally decided I just didn't need a 338-06 and sold it to someone who could use it. This was as solid and depedable as a working rifle could be.
