Shows what I know, DUH . Great score Ric, nice piece for sure. I'm like that guy said he can turn a Purdey into a JC Higgins in about 3 trades .

Not a hard choice for me.............the 54 action is the one to have in my opinion.

I outfitted that Beretta in a nice Italian leather fitted case with brass hardware and a presentation plaque and presented it to my favorite nephew for his 21st birthday a few years ago. (He's my rat shootin' buddy also) It is now one of his most cherished possessions he tells me. But a JC Higgins into a Purdey.........

I own a number of Anschutz rifles and am a big Anschutz fan. Being left handed the selection is a little more limited but for target and varmint guns a RH can work too, if the model I want is not made in LH. As far as the 22 RF, 22 Hornet you would be hard pressed to find a better gun, either as a sporter or a Target model.
When it comes to the 17 HMR, I am not as impressed with the Anschutz. I do a lot of gopher shooting so I go through a pile of 17 HMR ammo. I have had Savage, Marlin, CZ x 3, and 2 Anschutz. The Savage I sold after 30,000 rounds and it still shot under an inch at 100, the marlin after 20,000, my buddy is still shooting it ten years later, and the first CZ after 30,000; they both still shot under an inch. The second CZ has about 15,000 rounds through it and the last CZ is still new. The Anschutz has about 5,000 rounds through it, I sold the first one after about 8,000 rounds as the gun was starting to show signs of groups opening up. The CZs are every bit as accurate as the Anschutz, half the price (not that that is a real big consideration when you are going through this amount of ammo) and the CZ Barrels last way better. The Savage, Marlin and CZs all shoot about the same accuracy wise. The Anschutz were both in about the same league. With the 17 HMR the limiting factor in accuracy is the ammunition, not the gun. No matter how well built the gun and barrel, they will not be more accurate than the ammo is capable of. There is no equivalent to Eley Tenex in 17 HMR. I will sell the LH Anschutz and keep using the LH CZ 452 because I can get 30,000 rounds out of one, and still sell it knowing that it is shooting under 1 MOA. Just my advice based on a bit of time spent with them. Last edited by Dean2; 12-27-2018 at 04:40 PM. |
