Description
This Fabrique Nationale (FN) Model 98 is a classic Mauser-pattern bolt action chambered in .243 Winchester, set up as a clean, purpose-built sporting rifle. It’s fitted with scope rings and wears a striking laminated hardwood stock with aggressive styling and lightening cuts—very much in the “accurate field/bench” vibe.
Condition is described as Fine with the original finish, showing only light spotting and handling marks, and mechanically excellent. The 24 1/2" round barrel and crisp lines make this a great choice for the shooter who wants a traditional controlled-feed style action paired with a modern-looking stock and easy optics setup.
Bore is noted as mostly bright with some frosting and crisp rifling, which is exactly the kind of honest, usable bore description buyers expect on a well-kept .243.
