Maybe a bit like Bergara when they first arrived.
No interest as an unknown quantity....now look
The straight pull market seems to be very very fussy and difficult to please. (Blaser owners im looking at you)
I haven't anything to do with these but I hope they go well.
They seem to be quite good
All reviews are positive.
Beretta New Zealand, have arrogantly priced themselves out of my price range for retirement rifle.
So, as you would, being a Kiwi . I'm going to look for something else.
Chunky looking thing and 3000 euro.... ouch
You still have at least two 7 litre Camaros, a nascar powered a c cobra and the whole range of Sakos to go yet, then you have your 70s to look forward tooQuote:

My mate had one on loan last hunting season and I have shot them at a demo day at a range.Quote:

They are dear for what they are and you might end up buying an orphan if they dont sell well over thete.
I know nothing of the rifle you mention, but I’m going to throw something out there-Quote:

Admittedly I’m building the stock for it, but even if I charged it to myself the whole package would be $6k. A ‘deluxe’ Sako is probably that much these days, and still only a factory Sako.
Maybe one of these but hate to think of the cost.

You can keep the C/F stocked one. They can look nice with Timber, I guess it's because I like the Tulip tip Forend
Interesting they list both 9.3 x57 and 9.3 x62 as standard you don't see the 57 much
We just live for disappointment. I'm fucking gutted my R93 hasn't blown up yet but I live in hope. That plastic washer has to give up any day now.Quote:

heck get one in 6.5creampuff and keep it pink all the time perhaps???
Isn't that Bunji's truck? That he toured aussie in and saved countless lives performing open heart surgery with a bacho knife, whilst shooting foxes with open sights at 500 M with bullets cast in an open fire into hand molded sand from the Wheelweights after he rebalanced the tires swinging them on a clothes line.Quote:

Oh yeah I'd forgotten, didn't he modify it with pistons from a spitfire he found while free diving in Kuwait. Honed the cylinders by fisting with a blend of camel dung and Sahara sand.Quote:
