RE: Does anybody else hunt with Surplus rifles?
Grizzly..If you're interested in an 8 x57, you may want to check out the Yugo M48 and M48A..Many of these rifles are available in nearly unissued condition.. They were made when bolt action rifles were already becoming obsolete by semi auto and selective fire weapons and many of them have been used very little..Price ain't bad, either, especially when you end up getting a virtually NEW condition rifle..
