Not a bad price on this
.
I think that he's asking fair price. That is an above average RC with a nice bore. Nice wood, good finish. Milled metal parts. Dan's Ammo is the only
place I know of that is selling them. $329 + shipping.
This is what I ad up, conservatively --
A nice RC $325
Leupold bases $25
Leupold Super High rings $30
Bold adjustable trigger $50
Glass bedded action $75
Weaver K4-1 scope $85
Bend bolt to clear $50
Drill & tap receiver $50
Total $690
I think he's a little under considering this rifle is ready to go.
I am being conservative with gunsmithing fees here. Also,
a Weaver K4-1 is not the run of the mill K4. This was one of the finest
scopes Weaver ever built and this one is in nice collectible shape.
Yeah, you can find crappy RC's with buttstocks that have the buzz
sander treatment and questionable bores for less. Why put all
this work into a rifle like that ?
You boys haven't had many guns built have you ?
If you think this is high, try pricing out a build on an LSR repro K98.
This looks like a good alternative for a lot less money. And it is
an attractive set up. Looks very "sniperish" with that blued steel
scope with the sharp angles.
good shooting, dxr
