I have a .243 Win. shoots well handles well. trigger - just a tiny tiny bit of creep.Anyone shoot a Mauser M18?
Thinking about picking one up
The barrels are heat shrink in the reçever . The saurer 100 is threaded both are built in the same plant.As a matter of fact, a shooter had a new Mauser M18 in 30-06 at Tomball about a month ago, sighting it in.
I helped him by spotting for him as he had a 4x scope mounted.
it’s a three lug, which gives a short throw. The bolt is a straight cylinder. The stock was a greyish black synthetic.
He had no trouble keeping five shots in 1 1/4 inches with the Federal ammo.
i shot a three shot group, and it kicked like a mule. The reason being that with the scope, I doubt it weighed more than 7 1/2 pounds. The ammo was Federal 180’s, I think.
The back of the stock had a removable recoil pad that housed a compartment.
This is a pure utilitarian hunting Rifle. I think he paid around $600 at Academy.
