Yes they are.I bought one years ago when I worked for the gunshop.I still have it.I went through everyone we had.Mine has the most beautiful stock.It's a 30-06. I have Redfield Engraved rings on it.This gun has never been fired.Unfortunately I had a scope mounted. Right by where the end of the Objective was is a small spot on the barrel.It doesn't appear to be rust. Not sure what it is or what caused it.Just knowing it's there has bothered me for a long time.One day I need to take it out and see exactly what that spot is.The scope and covers had clearance. It was always wiped down with RIG.I can't figure out what caused this. I might try a little Gun Scrubber on a rag and see if I can remove it.If I told you what I have in it you'd have a heartattack.They were 499.00 at that time.The owner of the GS let me have it for 399.00. Christmas was close by. He knocked another 100.00 off for Christmas.I have 299.00 plus the rings in this jewel. I wish now I would have bought a couple of them. They also had Drillings.I'm still kicking myself for not getting one of them.They were a fine rifle no doubt.I have no idea what these are worth now days. Last ones I saw were close to 1300.00.I could have set myself up for an early retirement buying a few of these...... LOL.
