Husqvarna 30wcf single shot.

[MilitaryCollectorMark]

So was looking at a auction sight the other day and a rifle caught my eye.

Single shot in 30WCF (30-30) been looking for a while and this one looks quite nice!

Just hoping it goes reasonable

Only weak point is the extractor

Yes, I aware of it being able to fall out.

The stock certainly has a lot of drop in it... very European.

Had one for a bunch of years, it was fun, lightweight, not fun enough to keep however, sold on consignment.

I've always wanted one of those, I'm going to start looking for one..they remind me of a mini Mauser 1871 action

 

[MiG25]

I've long wanted one in 32-30

My wife has one in 25-20 and she loves it. Nice shooting rifle and very economical to handload for.

I think that's what it was based on?

Curious as to what auction? I have no interest in this rifle in fact I sold my Husqvarna singles as my eye sight doesn't agree with the small open sights. I just don't recall seeing this on any sights I watch

The action does seem to be a Mauser 71 scaled for the cartridge. Largest one I've seen was .45-70. Are all barrels marked "Winchester"? I assume Winchester supplied the barrels.

Congrats On the 'new to you' Husky. Good to see pricing hasn't really changed in 2 yrs.
Post up when she arrives.
Being such a light weight... it does have a little bark shooting her...

Thanks! Yeah, I'll be sure to post it. Might be a little while till I can post it since I'm going to be working down in the US till november.

Might try a flip flop recoil pad thingy if I don't like the recoil.

The 25-20 is a cute little predator caliber!

Factory ammo is extremely expensive, good thing you reload.

I was very fortunate to pick up a couple bags of new Win brass back when I bought this rifle, plus a couple boxes of 25-20 Win ammo as well. Since then I have also picked up quite a few 32-20 rounds which I break down for the cases to reform into 25-20 in addition to reforming new Starline 32-20.
As a bit of a bonus the pulled 32-20 bullets make great plinker rounds for my 303 British rifles.

Cool rifle. What did it run you if you don't mind me asking?
