Hopefully you can also post some pics of the Fraser action and metal work outside of its stock.

LRF, My " Fraser" rifle is one I built after I'd been outbid on a real one. I think they're one of the most elegant bolt rifles of all time, and if I can't own one, I decided to make my own version. It lacks engraving, that unique bolt handle, and some other nice details. I hope though that it does capture some of the Fraser touch.

I just measured neck diameter on a loaded round using the Nosler brass. It mikes .314"- same as vintage WW ammo. Those of you loading new Norma brass beware. Check the necks before you shoot. PS: In my rifle the N orma load chambers without resistance, but the tolerances are too close for normal pressures.

Bill, when I made my post I should have been more clear and directed it to SKB, as I think he was talking about the bolt gun Fraser he acquired a short time ago. Sorry. I did know you had built a Fraser but I don't remember if you had previously posted pics. I would like to see them if possible. I also built a Fraser and you are absolutely correct and I agree, they are the most elegant of the European SS rifles. IMHO I have previously posted pics here but its been a long time ago. Mine is in 405 Win and is all engraved in english scrolls by Roger Sampson.

I have had two Fraser m98 take down rifles in recently. The one currently in is one a slant box Oberndorf standard length action in .303 British. I am doing a very mild clean up on it. It is almost done. I will post pics when it is complete.

Keith, My President didn't lie about the weather. Keep reading the National Enquirer. I think it's making you smarter.

....My President didn't lie about the weather.... He probably did Bill. I know you're aware of it, but don't care to admit it, because of your preference for a divided country to advance your agenda, eh? You know barak's been spending all his irrelevant time accumulating personal wealth, when he could be an honest enviro warrior for free, right? Anyone who is buying a lavish private beach front mansion isn't too worried about rising sea levels. He would thank you for your service to pc, but that's beneath him. Do you deplorables get summer beach houses, or feel good crumbs designed to keep the misery level high enough to obscure a little thinking?

Keith, My President didn't lie about the weather. Keep reading the National Enquirer. I think it's making you smarter. Billy, your president... your anti-gun Liberal Left Democrat hero Barack Hussein Obama... spent eight years lying to us about the climate. He told us that the ocean level was rising and the sea would inundate coastal communities around the planet. He told us that that massive storms and hurricanes resulting from global warming would batter our shores like no time in history. So tell us then Billy, if Obama seriously believed that, then why is he endangering himself and his family by buying a $15 million mansion on the coast at Martha's Vineyard? And why does a guy who spent his entire life bashing the rich feel that he needs a $15 million mansion on the coast at Martha's Vineyard anyway? Wouldn't it provide better optics if he lived modestly and did volunteer work helping the millions who became homeless Welfare cases under his reign?

Keith, Your science background and your status as a climate change denier mark you as ineducable. What possible concern of yours is it what house Obama buys? Do you think he might have consulted you first? Do you feel he's ruining your neighborhood? If you think he didn't do enough to rescue the economy from Bush, you're even dumber than you sound. Dumber than Craig.
