Best rifle ever made is the Masuer 98. Just about every single bolt action rifle made today is a direct decendant from the Mauser 98 in one way or more. It is by far the most copied receiver ever devised and considered by nearly every one to be one of the absolute strongest.

Couldn't agree more - - the Mauser 98 is my hands-down favorite. The Model 96 Swede Mauser isn't to bad either.

You didn't place much of a limit on this question! No doubt the "best rifle ever made is/was a custom job, not a factory product. If you had said " 'best brand or best model' made since (date) it might be possible to give a reasonable answer. As you phrased it, it is NOT POSSIBLE to answer....... There were some beautiful rifles made in the 15th and 16th Centuries.......

(Which HENRY do you mean?? The predecessor to Winchester, or the current company??)
