Rigby-Mauser in .275 (7x57).  Transition small ring Mauser 98 intermediate action. Rigby cocking-piece peep sight and rear open sight with folding leaves and ladder. Receiver marked "Waffenfabrik Mauser Oberndorf 1898." According to serial number the rifle was built in 1900. Barrel engraved "John Rigby and Son 72 St. James's St. London." Bore is worn. Stock in poor condition.

First, I need to replace the stock.

See photos (more soon).

I restored this small ring transitional .275 a few years ago and took a pattern from it. I might be able to run a copy for you next winter if you can't find anything before then.

SKB,
I need an inleted blank for my 1898 transitional 7x57 Rigby, would it move the schedule up if you have an order for two blanks at the same time?
