When I get a chance, I'll post some photos and measurements of the various end caps on my rifles, in addition to Husqvarna they include Sako Riihimaki, Brno 21F, and the various models of Mannlicher-Schoenauer.

Hey guys. I have been poking around some spots trying to find scope rings for my h-5000. Can anyone help me out with finding some part #s for bases or have any for sale

Cheers
matt

What make of rings / bases you want? The standard Weaver type is #46 front and #55 rear, Leupold one piece is STD-HC 49989.... and there are others...

Thanks Baribal thats all I needed to know. Gonna go with the leupold as im putting a leupold scope on it. Hoping to drop a moose with it this fall.

hi

I have barrel for a 358 norma mag and three boxes of Norma 250 grain shells - It is hard to find the value of these items. Could anyone help me get in the ball park for a fair asking price. Sorry if this is the wrong page.

thanks
ABad

Unless one badly wants it, those take off barrels usually go for little, less than half the price of a good quality prechambered and profiled one.
A take off barrel needs to be indexed to the new receiver to adjust the sights and the headspace must also be adjusted, so it's not a cheap option.

I don't know if this helps any ,but in the last year and a half I've bought a couple 9.3 caliber barrels from tradex the 9.3x57 had a dark bore and I got it for 80.00 , the 9.3x62 was almost pristine and I got it for 120.00 .

They do mention dark bores, do they clean up or ?

 

[Baribal]

Well, I offered 150.00 $ and freight paid by me but the OP is not interested. Maybe will he use it for his own project.

Rob,

This is a M/46A. Very nice wood.

 

[Why not?]

Hi Baribal,

If that is the 46A, what model is the rifle using the same receiver, but without the thumb cutout like this 9.3X62?



This is the rifle I have been doing most of the cast bullet shooting with.

Ted:

It's a 46AN.

HTH

 

[Baribal]

Not really. It's actually a 649.
There are three versions of the 640; one made on the "commercial" M/38 with the "beavertail. fore arm stock, one with the M/98 with the same stock and one more on the M/98 with a schnabel stock - same as the early 1640 and 1600 (European style, same as the 4100, but without fore arm checkering). To add to the confusion, some early 640 are exactly like the 46A and 46B but with the serial range of the 640.

The 640 are nice light rifles. I use one for walking the woods and used it to shot a moose with the iron sights, it's also a M/649 (in 9.3X62, of course!).

The 46AN is the exact same as the 46A, but chambered in 9.3X62 only with the word "Antioxid" on the barrel. Vry few were ever made - 227 actually, all with a prefix "N" before the serial number - serials being from N1001 to N1228.

Here's one;

this one wasn't too bad after giving it a good scrubbing .......
are you familiar with the scale that is on hot rolled steel ? it kind of reminds me of that .
I ran a tight patch through it with some valve grinding compound on it and it wouldn't even touch it .

the bore is smooth , sharp rifling , just dark ....... except that last 2 inches had some rust pitting in it .... it is a 25 inch long barrel so trimming a few inches off of it isn't a issue .

I was thinking that worst case , just fire lapping a few rounds through it .

I had an 8X57 rifle with a bore like that. Could not get it clean. Read somewhere that long, continued, use of ball powder could do that. Got really aggressive, and took after it with coarse steel wool wrapped around an old bore brush. Soaked it with solvent, and went at it twenty strokes at a time, then change the steel wool for new, as it was coming out quite dark.

It was quite an amazing transformation. The bore was bright in less than 100 strokes, and the rifle went from a mediocre shooter to a very satisfactory hunting accuracy. The more it was shot after that, the brighter the bore became.

You might want to try the cave-man treatment....

Matt,
That's a model 640. The caliber will make the fine designation.

Some of these "dark bores" only need to be shot a bit to shine like a diamond.
