| Need a new barrel
Recently found what I believe is a sporterized large ring 98 Mauser.Nothing really left orginal except the bolt and receiver. Nice custom stock. Problem is that the barrel is chambered for some wildcat cartridge called a 308 Staples. At least that is what is stamped on the barrel. I would like to get it rebarreled in the standard 308/7.62x51. Where could I send it to get this done? Not really wanting a high dollar barrel, just one that would give decent accuracy Thanks for any help

I'd suggest looking into the dimensions of the 308 Staples and seeing if it can be rechambered without rebarreling. Unless it's some sort of short or long magnum, 30-06 Ackley Improved should be a fair bet.
