The firearm can be fitted with different barrels and bolts to allow for an change in caliber.

For the price quoted, I can get the basic rifle, and a second barrel and bolt in .577 Nitro Express (elephant/elk/ really fucking big bear) round.

Oh, and the rifle can be taken down and carried in a custom suit case, i.e typical Hollywood sniper rifle.

Not only that...but the kick on that puppy might toss you into the next county.

What is so special about these guns, besides being able to take down any Water Buffalo wandering into your backyard?

I guess only you know if the price is worth it to you.

I can even shoot black powder with it. I had custom made BP ammo for it. During the winter I take my guns to Outdoor World and use their indoor range.

BUT, from the way you describe it it sure sounds like a great deal. I would need to see [and handle] it for a final decision but I would say "go for it".

Would sure love to be at the range the first time you lock and load a .577 rd and take it for a test drive.

I have fired a 577 before, as well as a 45/120 buffalo rifle, 58 caliber 3 band enfeild, and a .50 barrett.

Status: offline 		What is first barrel .243, .300, .458 ?  Model 202’s . . . page full for sale (click for link) From a $1,400.00 to $10,000.00 seems to be the price range.

Looks like a great rifle that is easy to transport and comes in so many flexible configurations and calibers, it seems more than well worth the money.  I have readily paid more for a Steyr Mannlicher (click for link) .300 Winchester and was thrilled with it. 

The gun shop set up the scope so I took it to the range to test it.  The first shot went right where I put it.  However, the next shots seemed to be off the target paper.  I figured I jolted the scope out of alignment somehow.  I asked my girl to look at the dirt embankment behind the target stand so I could know if it was off to the left or right.  She said they were tagging the dirt just behind the target and it must be tracking just off so closely, she couldn’t tell which side.  She thought maybe it was going under.

After a dozen shots or so, someone sounded the bell and I went to put up fresh paper . . . my jaw dropped when I got close.   At 125 yards, it keyholed every shot so tightly, we couldn’t tell through the spotter’s scopes.

It was my friends story about high powered rifle hunting that got me add the Mannlicher to my collection.  He told me how he leaned his gun against the fence of a corn field so he could climb over.  On top of the fence he spotted a nice buck in the field, pulled his gun up and fired.  The kick back knocked him off the fence and when he got back up, the buck was gone.  He was sure he a good bead on it and went over to where it was to start tracking it.  . . . there it laid, dead in the spot he shot it.

No, I don’t think it is crazy to buy a nice rifle, no matter what the price.
