Thanks for the info. Wonder how deep DeHaas goes into the Japanese bolt rifle details. I'll have to check for that book online. Seems lately I've gotten into this Arisakaicon "thing". Problem is most of them have chewed up bores, mostly pitted and rusty. I'm not too interested in shelling out the big bucks for a collectable grade. I just want to shoot the original 6.5X50 cartridge with accuracy. To that end I'm considering putting a new commercial barrel on a type 38 action. I have had a Douglas blank in 6.5 for a few years and now may be able to put it to good use.
Thanks again!!
