ok they have nice wood and look very well made but what makes them worth 50g's each?

Probably the name stamped (or hopefully engraved by hand) into the receiver.

 

[chuck nelson]

People willing to pay that for them. A simple case of what the market is willing to bear.

 

[RobSmith]

Yeah so a couple of bolt action rifles, worth say about 1K each compared to 500$ (at most) without the fancy wood. Add another 20 bucks (I know they sell for MUCH more but I'm talking actual "worth") for the glass on top and you have a whopping 2040$ worth of rifles, on a good day.

what's the catch ?

 

[Winchested]

The checkering looks nice but I do not like the wood at all. Looks like a bunch of tiger stripes.

Hopefully the catch is the heat seeking ammunition put through them and the LOCK ON TARGET capabilities of the scopes. LOL.

I'm guessing they're made by David Miller?

What did I win?

The bottom one.

Very nice but I bet most shooters couldn't do better with one of them than with a Savage package rifle with the econo Bushnell scope they come with.

NAA.

 

[chuck nelson]

Their accuracy is probably but a small consideration when one of these is ordered.

Prices start at $48000 and a 2.5 year waiting list?
No thanks.

 

[struff55]

Nice but a little over priced my math adds them up to half that .

No thanks.

I'm assuming you don't even have the choice. I know I don't.

 

[ryandpahl]

Speaking in relative prices.

If you have the coin to buy such an "over-the-top" custom firearm, why would you cheap out on the glass?

 

[ggagnon]

so what makes these worth 50g a peice? what I could find, these are built of a win model 70 action, very rarely, a weatherby action, from a company established in 1978...

unless I missed something, couldn't one just buy the model 70 and build one? for a fraction of the cost?

they must have platinum bolts and bedded in gold...

 

[chuck nelson]

Makes you think there might be a reason.

 

[ggagnon]

there is little information even on the company, found this, but what it attemts to explain, it doesnt. all i can get is david and curt found someone with to much money, and no knowledge.

interesting part of the article was that winchester asked them for help bringing back the model 70,
