Zubin,

Excellent rifles !! Though I really like your .375 , I can't wait to see the work you do on the "fair lady" .

I see that very much like the IOF .22LR rifle, the stock of the 30.06 also comes in various shades of yellow/brown. Olly's rifle has a darker stock.

best,

Rp.

That will be an original Oberndorf Type-A Mauser in 10.75x68, my grandaddy's favorite bolt-rifle :D ...and mine too with good reason!

Do you want me to guess or state. i have already seen your collection except the 30.06, which is very easy to spot.
By the way Zubin and his entire family (including their dogs and a single one eyed tom)are such lovely people. Pity i could not make it to their place again. hope to do after the work on IOF 30.06 is over.

Zubin,

It would be really worthwhile if you kindly let everyone know about the various things you kept in mind while selecting this particular IOF 30.06 piece. A check list of sorts if you please.

best,
