While another Rimfire picture thread may be redundant, It would be nice to be able to view and appreciate some of the finer rimfires that CGN'rs have without having to scroll through hundreds of Tacticool 10/22's to see them. There are threads specifically dedicated to the CZ's and the Ruger so It would seem fair to have a place where Rimfire afficionado's can view or post pics of their high quality rimfires.

So what qualifies as a "high quality" rimfire? This is obviously subjective but let's say that if its black and made of plastic it probably belongs elsewhere. To further refine the criteria, I'll throw out a few examples: Anschutz, Cooper, Sako, Walther, Krico, Weihrauch, Suhl, BSA martini's, Kimbers, Remington 40x, 541's, Winchester 52's, 75's, Browning A-bolts. The examples are skewed a little toward my interest in bolt actions of European manufacture, but you get the idea.

If you have a Rimfire that you feel belongs under this heading please re-post even if it has been posted elsewhere previously.

I'll kick it off with the latest addition to the collection; A Fortner action Anschutz 1827 Biathlon. Along with older sibling 54 action 1827 Biathlon.

This is terrific!!!! These are precisely the types of firearms this thread was started for.

Symphony, that is a wonderful collection you have! Very envious of your 54.18MSR and 1907R. Also the 40x Sporter!

Stubblejumper, that is a beauty Cooper! Looking to acquire something along these lines as well, perhaps with a little more pedestrian wood though. I'd be scared to take that one out of the house.

When I picked out the blank, I was actually expecting a much less impressive stock. Apparently so did everyone else, as the blank was actually a mid priced blank, rather than one of the higher priced blanks.
 
Here's my Pair of Sako Finnfire Ranges. Actually I just sold the top one but it was still mine when the photo was taken :)

Both very accurate, the one with the scope mounted routinely produces groups like the ones pictured with Lapua center X. Pardon the cheapie Simmons Pro-Air scope, it's all I had kicking around unused with the appropriate rings. Thats a staple tear above the top right group.

All very nice rimfires you got there...

This one is next on my hit list once Anschutz starts getting them out the door.

Man oh man... How I have been looking for a 1907R and here in one day we have 2 guys posting pics of theirs. I want one - PLEASE!!! :)

Will post some pics of my rifles shortly.
 
Symphony - I can easily get one of them from Jochen Anschutz - but not a 1907R.

Maybe we should do a deal... Hehehe :)

LOL Globalstar...the 1907R is not going anywhere soon!

I don't know if it's true but I recall reading that Anschutz only made 30 or so 1907Rs which would make them one of the rarest versions offered?
 
.Remington 541S

Stubblejumper - Is your Remington 541S the version with the scroll engraving on the reciever? That particular configuration commands a nice premium.

I have a 541T heavy barrel on the way. Ive wanted one since 93 when I chose a Winchester 52 Sporter re-make over buying the Remmy. I don't regret the desicion, just want the Remington also :)
 
Here are my humble few rimfires....

Top to bottom: Volquartsen in 22LR; Anschutz Match 54 in .22LR; Anschutz Match 54 in .22LR; Anschutz 2013 in a laminate BR stock .22LR; Anschutz 1717 in 17HMR


A few close-up pics:

You won;t believe it - Jochen Anschutz told me they really struggled to sell them - hence the reason they stopped making them. They made more than 30 according to Jochen but I don't know the exact number. Peter Krause told me he brought in a few and after production ceased, he bought a few more. I know there were quite a few sold in Europe. Again I do not know the numbers. :)
 
Awesome thread! Some real drool worthy rifles here...
Here is my refinished CIL Anschutz 190... pretty low on the totem pole in this thread. :)
