I am a new member to this forum and I am wondering if someone out there can point me in the right direction. Currently I am working on a Mauser 93 that used to be a 7x57, now it is a .243. It was a surplus rifle from years ago and it had a new stock blank with it. Well I am doing all the inletting, sanding, finishing, bluing, adding a scope, etc. Sporterizing I guess. Now this is something I enjoy doing, but how do I continue finding guns like this.

I know there are places like Samco Global where you can buy barreled actions of surplus rifles. But, I would like to find some model 700's or something like that. Rifles that have a damaged stock, but decent actions. Basically a rifle in need of a new stock and some TLC.

If anyone could point me in the right direction, any help is appreciated.
