Looks fine to me

where did you buy the stock from?

from Bell and Carlson they redirected me to their distributor Rifle Stocks - Bell and Carlson i'd email them because you need to do export paperwork (easy will take maybe 10mins, Jim was easy to deal with and good communication)

This looks like an interesting build. Have a Churchill Mauser action with a Timney sportsman trigger sitting in the shed doing nothing, I am thinking on doing a 25/308 (25 Souper).

Saw the comment about using the scope to carry.
Have done it a lot no problem at all.
You do need a long action or small hands.
The scope should be able to hack it.

Oooooh heres........... @Gibo

Long action with small hands of wife

I'm not up on Mausers but I'd not lap the lugs in case its only got a few thou surface hardening? No4 Enfield's for instance must not be. I'm looking at a Brazilian 1908 Mauser and a Swede M96 at the moment so I might yet join the club (assuming a Pattern 1914 doesn't count)

I hate seeing a rifle held by the scope.

Because I find it unessecery to hold it by the scope. And I dont trust it. It may not move and it shouldn't move but why hold it there. I've never felt a stock un comfortable enough to wanna hold the scope.

Try it you might like it!

Help! the rear base is level with the reciever, any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Would definitely recommend a full length picatinny rail. Looks like some muppet tapped the hole on an angle.
