Whitworth Custom 7mm STW

[Automag]

So I won a whitworth custom 7mmSTW at an auction this week. It’s an older custom based on a Mauser action. Anyone have any info on whitworth? All I’ve been able to find is its an old custom builder that made some pretty good stuff base done on Mausers. Thinking about rebarrelling. Should I stay with 7stw or go with something?

May be interested in selling/trading. Just not sure what yet. Basically, auction was for good cause. Didn’t need the rifle, but I have it now. What should I do?

Whitworth rifles , if commercial were built on Mark X actions . Which are Yugoslav actions and very strong , but not as well finished as an FN .
If you look at any of the older shooters bible or gun digest from the lat 70 to mid 90 you should see them .

Nice rifles. That's all I have to say. I've had 2 of them in 375 H&H
