I would like to try and get some information on a rifle I own. The gun is Marked custom built by Pachmayr Los Angles California.
The grip cap is engraved Donated by Nan and Frank Pachmayr SSCI.
The gun is built on a Mauser action, hand engraved with an Elephant on the bottom shell plate and a Rhino on the trigger guard.
I know SCI Safari Club International, but SSCI ???
Does someone have the records on Pachmayr custom rifles.

Later in life frank donated a huge amount of guns to various Wildlife clubs, Extremely high-end shotguns to ducks umlimited etc. you can read all about it in this book . Rock island auction sold a bunch of pachmayr collection about year ago so many of those guns are currently on market. Here is a rifle that sounds similar to your own.

I did order the book and looking forward to reading it.

Can anyone give me a name of a forum where I might be able to get more feedback on my rifle?

You might find info in this book:

Don't know of a Pachmayr specific forum.

Yes I purchased this book. Actually found a new one on eBay for $24.00 including shipping. Looking forward to reading it.
I�m surprised at how little information I can find on the internet concerning Pachmayr rifles.
I am looking for a forum where I would have a chance of chatting with some members who have some knowledge of Pachmayr custom guns.
Hoping to find out more on my gun in particular.

Try nitro express or accurate reloading.

Yup, those two websites. You will have to wade through various subforums, but the expertise is on those sites.

Dang that is nice!
