Re: Santa barbara mauser action. Hi KD, I have an 7x57 that is built on Santa Barbara action and no problems, the action is a bid hard and not as smooth as an Sako action, but it works well.

308 Santa Barbara info needed!! I have the opportunity to buy a Santa Barbara 308 for around R4k - would that be a fair price? I had a look at the rifle and it looks in a reasonable condition. The bolt and action cycles good. I am going to shoot the rifle Saturday to check its accuracy.
I have the same model. If you google it, any model that's serial number starts with an R, is a Mark III or IV if I recall correctly. It has the Santa Barbara K98 action. Thick barrel, lots of wood, heavy as hell, but very accurate!
Armed with your info i found it indeed to be a Spanish Santa Barbara action. These ones were commercial mauser actions made in 1969/70's for Parker Hale. Musgrave then bought a whole lot from PH England. From what I can gather these are not bad actions, although I would have preferred something more Germanic.
Re: Info on 308 Musgrave_worth buying? This rifle was built on a Santa Barbara action. This is basically a Spanish built version of the FN "Mauser" action, which is a much improved sporter version of the military K98. The current Zastava M70 is basically the same thing.
Aug 12, 2021 · As ek dit reg het, is die Santa Barbara aksie dieselfde ding as die kommersiële FN Mauser aksies. Hulle het glo die masjienerie by FN gekoop en die aksies in Spanje vervaardig volgens dieselfde spesifikasies.
Re: Musgrave model identification. Not much detail I can see on the pic, but from the little I can see it looks like it is built on a Santa Barbara action. This is basically a commercial FN "Mauser" action, but built by SB in Spain. AFAIK, only 1 version was built on this action, the only option being calibre. 07-01-2018, 21:07 #5.
Re: Require info or opinion on K98 action. Ian, your Musgrave is a typical Deluxe 98 rifle. They were built from the mid- '80s to around 1993 or so. There were basically 3 models on the K98 action: Standard, Deluxe and Lightweight. The serial number will tell you which one jou have.
Jun 4, 2010 · The only Musgrave rifles built on controlled feed actions were those built on surplus K98 actions, the older Lyttelton and RSA actions and a small number of Santa Barbara actions. The Santa Barbara actions were cast copies of the forged steel K98 actions. All actions made by the Musgrave factory itself (80,83,90) were push feeds.
308 Musgrave. I inherited a 308 Musgrave from a family member and is busy with all the admin (licensing) for getting hold of this rifle. The rifle has a octagon shaped barrel and was originally bought as some kind of limited addition from Musgrave. The seriel number is 308BM0001, and I think the BM must stand for "Boere Mauser".
