Interarms 1973 - Mark X and Churchill

Nice. My mother had a full stock version of the Interarms Mk.X in .243 Win. I believe they were built on Zastava barreled actions.
 
Had a chance to buy a Churchill in 375 years ago and regret it. A lot of rifle for the money. Really had the look of traditional British big bore rifles.

Mk. X rifles were contemporaries of the Parker Hale Mauser sporting rifles. I always thought that they were nicer rifles. After the disintegration of Yugoslavia, and the subsequent NATO bombing of Serbia, the reintroduced Zastava Mauser rifles were lacking in comparison.
 
I had a recent production zastava mini "mauser" and have an interarms branded mini. Big difference in fit and finish
 
Zastava barreled actions used in Interarms then in Charles Daly rifles. Then in Remington 798/799 rifles which feature Remington laminate stocks.

798 .458 WM has dual cross bolts Remington did good my stock hasn't cracked from recoil.

So what years of production for Interarms mark X in 30-06 , 270 win. was fitted with rubber buttpads? Or does it go by caliber? I see a lot of these rifles were modified, what was the original configuration for these calibers?

Yes, fitment and finish on the stocks is lacking, but the metalwork is not. I know a lot of people who, like myself, bought one in various calibers, and compared to other rifles (including Mauser's push feed rifle) the controlled feed 98 action is second to none. Their mass production stocks keep prices very competative, but few are aware of their higher grade versions that are comparably priced with the fancy grade M98 sporters still being made by Mauser.
