I have loved the looks of fullstock rifles since I first saw an Interarms catalog from around 1972 0r 73. I will own one someday!

The LGS had a NIB Interarms Mk X Mannlicher stocked carbine chambered in 7x57 offered at a ridiculously reasonable price. It had been there just long enough for me to make an offer on which the owner accepted. Oddly, I haven't gotten around to taking any pics yet.

No, thankfully. I don't particularly like the Mk X spoon handle, it is swept back. I prefer mine straight up and down like on this Brno: Too bad it isn't a full stock model.

I have an Oberndorf 98 commercial action from the late 20’s. Type M bolt handle with ‘06 length inside bow release bottom metal. It will one day be made into an Oberndorf Type M style stutzen. It’s been a dream rifle for 25 years, originally envisioned as a 9x57, but I’ve since become enamored with the 9.3x62. It will make a nice short companion to my 1939 Type A in the same caliber.

Finally got around to getting these pictures off my other computer. These are both from 2012 with my Ruger M77RSI in 308 Win. Apologies for the poor picture quality, most of my family/farmers that I hunt with aren't know for their photography. The Black Bear was taken on December 2nd running at 40 yards; she fell 40 yards from when the first and only shot was fired. Bear rounded out around 200lbs live. The one I got this past season with the revolver was the same size. The Whitetail was taken off the same farm, just on the adjacent mountain on my 23rd birthday 5 short days later. This isn't the largest buck killed to date on the farm, but it's the only one that's ever had a drop tine. I did a rough scoring, came out to 125", IIRC. This is also my largest buck, and as far as NEPA goes, it's going to be very difficult to top.
