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. I think it`s good value for money. Quick Navigation Tactical Rifles and Carbines Top. The GUN LAWYERS board –Free gun related legal advice.
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.

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.
Jun 4, 2010 · 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. The serial numbers of the rifles built on surplus K98 actions usually have 98 in the number somewhere and S98 denotes a standard style stock with no cheeck piece.
I have worked on a few 98s but am by no means an authority. The 98 was made as the German military issue rifle from 1998 to 1945, by many factories in Germany and elsewhere in Europe. Quantities ran into millions. Was also made since 1945 by FN, Santa Barbara in Spain and possibly others. A virtual exact replica is still being made bt Zastava.
308 Musgrave. Hi There. 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".
