BRNO Effect? Break action single shot

See them on the auction sites now and then, not often.
 
What are they priced at now? I think I bought mine in 2010 and it was priced around $1000.
It is right around 1000, maybe a bit less. If it were a 7x65r it would be in my truck already! I’m pretty well loaded up on 308’s myself!
 
Gents; that fkbrno sight in "Gainsboro, Florida" is a scam. It is associated with a server in Singapore!! My cousin actually works for Brno Arms in the Czech Republic and has recently confirmed this fact for me. CZ still owns Brno, but their focus is on pistols and olympic-grade match rifles for the Euro market. I happen to be looking for a replacement stock set for my 308 Brno Effect, but no luck. I did, however, find a NOS Brno Effect in the Czech Republic and may have it imported to Canada. It is in the venerable 7x65r calibre, which is an excellent all-around performer. It is similar in ballistics to the 280 Rem, but has the case capacity to be handloaded even hotter, as long as the break action is modern and strong. My Effect is well used and is amoung one of my favourite stalking rifles. It is less than 6 pounds unscoped and is a very well thought-out and robust design. My plan would be to keep my 308 receiver for spare parts and have two interchangeable barrels, 308 and 7x65r... win win.

The Czech retailer contacted me. They won't export. Too much red tape and cost. However, I begged them to sell me just the stock set, barrel (of course) and the firing pin assembly. Fingers crossed. It would be nice to have 7x65r !

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
Ready for the hunt with HTK Safaris

Hello:
I’ll take the .375 Whitworth for $1,150 if the deal falls through.
Thanks .
