Any of you folks with "takedown rifles" from Neilson, Randy's, Blaser, or ArmsTech that they use for hunting? Showem is you gotem. I'm looking for for some feed back on accuracy, ease of assemble / disaembly, price, etc...

Will be in the market for one after I sell a kidney or two :)
 
I don't have any of those snazzy takedowns, just an old Savage 1899 from 1923 or so. That 80+ year old rifle will shoot sub-MOA 3-shot groups on a good day, 1.25" the rest of the time. If I remove the barrel and put it back on, POI may shift by as much as 0.5 inches at 100 yards.
From what I hear, Blaser and Sauer takedowns are dead accurate and easy to take down.
 
I have a couple of Newtons that feature a wonderful take-down system. Easy to replicate if you have hex bolts for the action, good bedding and a small torque wrench.....
 
i've got a mannlicher-schoenauer model 1910 takedown in 9.5x57mm. it was sold by cogswell & harrison and is so marked on the barrel. i wish it could tell me where it has been, i like to think that it went to either india or east africa, but who really knows. from what i have found on the internet, it has the pre 1917 C&H address on it, and since i doubt there was much trade between britain and austria at that time (except for bullets and shells in the italian alps) it was probably in C&H's inventory prior to august 1914.

Always wanted a Savage 99 takedown in .30-30 Win. Or an old Winchester lever, like an 1886 model in 45-70, in a takedown...:cool:
 
my dad and 3 of his hunting buddies shot blasers and are amazing, poi never changes, ease of changing barrel is amazing and the triggers are without a doubt the best factory triggers on the market. imho they are the best rifle on the market, the only bad thing is havein a scope for every barrell but thats the same as a scope on every gun. they cost around 2-3g cdn and barrells cost 700 usd ranging from centefire 22's to 416 rigby
