Cheers for that...said he could meet me in Hamilton...then came back and said the price is $300 for that. Lost sale.
Need a Blaser case, can't beat red felt...had someone in my debt but not enough...
Let me know how it goes...just about bought a Marlin papoose for $250 in Matamata tonight.
No...self employed...own a pretty solid whiskey collection if that helps?
Off the first owner...like me he didn't use it much...looks great with the Zenith on it.
I am trying to recall around $3.5k with QD mount with inch and 30mm rings. Might sell it and get a couple of Blaser R93 barrels!...but it shot a 1 hole group with basic 150gn Federal ammo before...

The action cycling is very fast compared to traditional bolt throw and you can maintain your cheek weld to be have a fast follow up shot...
That price straight from a prompt reply from the NZ agent. Suspect demo/show special.
Standard Strasser RS 05:

Hi
Anyone on here had the privilege of spending quality time with both? I have the M03 and it is a solid beast but so beautifully made.
I like the look of the R93 and understand it is also a...
