RE: Custom rifle for $1800.00 ?
 

Since this issue has come up.....as a matter of fact, my favorite rifle at the moment is a sporter...which I have built from a mis-matching "mutt" Yugoslav M48 "Mauser" milsurp rifle. Most of the serial numbers on the various parts do not match....the rifle has absolutely no collector's value...and as it sits is probably not worth $100 to anyone (but me). But, after epoxy-bedding the action in a new laminated stock....and free-floating the (military, stepped) barrel....this rifle will shoot almost as well as any I've ever had. Further, I have a grand total of about $210.00 in this "project". I wouldn't give it up for anything. I like this rifle so much that I've gotten rid of all of my other rifles, at this point. I have begun reloading for the 8mm Mauser cartridge, as well. I know that, with the proper loads, I can hunt most anything I wish. Best of all, for me, it cost NOTHING....so I don't have to care about

Well that is all fine and dandy for you. I hope you have a lot of satisfaction owning that. I appreciate rifles for their workmanship and their accuracy looks and feel. I can't get all that in most if not all Factory made rifles. Thats my opinion and my hard earned money paying for it.

Weatherby De Luxe with Swarowsky 3-9 x 40.......Question Answered!

The question was which weatherby or remington was "worth" $1800 with scope,not which weatherby costs $1800 with scope.By the way I am unable to locate a swarovski 3x9x40.They do however list a 3x9x36.


OR A 3-9x42.....Swarowsky Habicht-AV

Actually that is a 3x10x42 av
