I wish it was legal to carry a rifle like that, in a car, in Europe... :E Crying:

Of your choices I vote for "2960", "2963". Comparing with others on display I prefer wood, rather then rock in my quarters, so a mount on a branch of some kind would be my choice.

What was the price per round? Just to check was it worthy of the effort? And is it still worthy for 200 plinking rounds, at least for that?

Yes, but Sullivan prefers proper calibers. Hmmmm...

Damn it, now we are back to square one! So, did anybody here hunt with MS, and how was it?

This is wonderful MODERN rifle, with classic looking stock. If I were to buy Blaser R8 in some caliber 375 H&H or bigger for Africa, I would look exactly for that. I am not a fan of polymer stock. The only thing that looks worse than polymer stock is aluminum chassis on tactical rifles. The...
