DUANE WIEBE CUSTOM G33/40 MAUSER 6.5X55 SWEDE

A beautifully proportioned Duane Wiebe custom rifle built on the coveted G33/40 Mauser action, chambered in the classic 6.5×55 Swedish—a cartridge long admired for accuracy, efficiency, and field performance. This is Wiebe rifle #0899, executed with the clean lines, flawless metalwork, and practical elegance that define his best work.

The rifle is fitted with a 23½" Krieger barrel and wears engraved scope rings, complemented by refined detailing throughout. Notable features include a four-panel checkered bolt, a Fisher rounded floorplate by Blackburn, steel-capped pistol grip, Niedner-style checkered steel buttplate, and a well-shaped cheekpiece. Inletted front and rear sling swivel studs preserve the rifle’s sleek profile while maintaining full field utility.

Engraving by Charles Lee adds tasteful artistry without overwhelming the rifle’s purpose-built character—subtle, confident work that enhances rather than distracts. Balance is outstanding at 7 lbs 9 oz, with a 14" LOP that gives the rifle modern, shootable proportions.

Condition is excellent, showing only light handling marks consistent with careful storage and limited use.

A refined, lightweight custom Mauser from one of America’s premier rifle makers—perfect for the discerning hunter or collector who values restraint, craftsmanship, and one of the finest sporting cartridges ever devised.
