I bought this rifle then did what I always do...bought every reloading component and ammo known to man lol!!! I bought this rifle from an AH owner. He says it only had 50 rounds through it and I only put 10. I replaced his scope with a Leupold VX5 in 3.5-10 50 Fire Dot for my leopard hunt. With my 10 shots, I got .3 inches at 100 yards with factory ammo. After replacing my stock on my dad's 30-06 I have decided to take that rifle when I take my leopard to complete my Big 5 versus this rifle only due to nostalgia of it being my father's 30-06. The only reason I am selling this magnificent rifle with the following reloading components all listed at my exact cost without tax and shipping to me:
1. 9 full ammo Federal 175 Grain Power Shok = $504
2. 6 full ammo Remington 140 Grain Corelokt = $336
3. 100 Partition 140 grain Spitzer Bullets = $100
4. 50 count unfired brass = $75
5. Lee complete die set = $60
6. RCBS complete die set = $60
Total supplies = $1,135
Rifle itself = $2,300
My new Leupold Scope discussed above = $637
Total = $4072
I will sell all the above only as a package for $2,750 which includes shipping in US which is a 32% discount to what I paid.

First person that says they will buy it gets it.
Thanks for looking!!!

this will not last long! Great package and price.

But a 10 shot .3 inch group???? Haha that would be something.

I passed this off rifle to some friends who might be interested.

Man, that’s a great deal. Classic rifle and chambering. Great package. If I didn’t have two 7x57’s I’d be all over this. Good luck with the sale.

lol!!! I should have said my best three shot group was 0.3 inches which was the case after new scope adjustment
 
@Rare Breed, bummer I didn't see this earlier. I would have taken a drive to pick it up and meet you. Congrats to buyer.

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
I'm new to Africa Hunting. I would like to purchase a Heym 450-400 double rifle. I'm left-handed but would prefer a non-canted gun. Is anyone in the community considering parting with theirs?
