That's even worse. Push feed is the biggest sin of all on a safari rifle.

The new M98 Magnums are beautiful, but I seem to recall that they are +$10,000...although the customrifles are also well above that price. Makes the CZ Safari look like the deal of the decade.

I just got a quote via email on a Mauser M98 Magnum. It has a 10-12 month delivery time and costs ~$17,000 :eek:.

I seem to recall seeing them on a US site for just over US$10,000, not that such an amount puts it within reach. For $17,000 you could buy a nice old rifle with some history - Westley Richards, Rigby etc. Or a decent double rifle from Merkel, Heym etc.

I saw them on Mitchell's Mausers site for around $10,000 US. That's not bad but I'd probably go with a CZ and save my money. The US Cabela's site has a nice Gun Library section with a lot of safari rifles if anyone is interested (the menu is on the top left hand side): http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/t...d=10468&cm_re=LeftNav_Other*GunLibrary*113009

X2.

Even in big bore caliber any rifle that is not control round feed I would not consider a safari rifle.

I like my zkk602 in 375h&h and the other two safari rifle that I will consider to buy (within reach not dream guns) will be 416 rigby either a ruger rsm or a heym.

If I am not mistaken the Heym bolt action Safari is also in the $10,000 range. I think the only "reasonably" (its all relative I guess!) priced rifles in this category are the CZ, RSM, Sako Safari and maybe A-Square.

You could be right because I know the Heym SR21 was in the sub$3k range so I thought the express light magum was slightly more.

Didn't know they were $10k gun!:eek:

Can we get Dakota bolt guns here?
