    These are nice guns for $490,

    Grunig & Elmiger 308 Target Rifle | Trade Me

    This one is a 2 lug bolt and not the later 3 lug. The later 3 lugs reduce horizontal spread slightly but $490 was a good price for a very well made gun with sights (which are usually $100+). A new barrel will cost you $800~1000 I'd recommend a Krieger.

    I still have an earlier one to this - it is an absolute dog to bed correctly due to the enormous recoil "lug" king screw combination. Apparently the guys that got them to shoot well machined the lug off. I was going to FTR mine but the bolt handle presents a wee issue - needs bending somewhat.
    They were a premium rifle in their time costing 4x an Omark of the day. Virtually an Anschutz stock. The well healed shooters owned them..... So much for the level playing field back then.

    Nice, I've got a 308 FTR rifle being assembled now around a Barnard action and a 32" True Flight 1:10 barrel, Boyds stock.
    That should keep the boy busy for a few seasons.

    Will post pictures when it is complete.

    Boyds description was "CLASSIC UNINLET WALNUT LAMINATE (UNFINISHED)"
    I ordered in anticipation of having a rifle built, before I knew what I would build.
