Husqvarna Sporting Rifles #### - ALL MODELS!!!

[Baribal]

It seems your rifle was rebarreled. The barrel should have "Nitro" with "crown over "C"" proofmarks. The caliber marking should also be axially oriented with line of sight and the rifle was a Grade II before the barrel was replaced (it had sights).

Nice rifle west44!

Baribal- does the grade II have a jewelled bolt with iron sights?

 

[west44]

Thank you. I guess that explains why the caliber markings were on the bottom of the barrel instead of the top.

 

[Baribal]

The CG Grade II have sights, no jewelling on the bolt body, the Grade III have no sight and a jewelled bolt and "engraved" floorplate

Jason Spencer at Gunco in Ottawa would have done the work....he marks his initials, date, caliber, on the bottom like that.

Thank you Hitzy, that is a great piece of information.

1950 FN98 270, Just got it from my father. I put a 4-12x40 Bushnell on it today.

Dad bought it from the original owners son in 1979

Before I changed scopes

From the rear sight, I would say more of à 1951 than a 1950.... Nice rifle and with history and pride.

All these Husqvarnas remind me I have an old model 8000 in .243 I gotta dig out of storage. Might be worth a clean up to sell it on the forum!

I have a Grade II magnum in 7mm. It is my hunting rifle and is laser accurate and comfortable to shoulder. I can’t believe that I am contemplating selling it, but am tossing the idea around. Any idea what these are worth these days? It is a hunted rifle, not perfect but not rough either, I do my best to keep it in good shape. Thanks in advance

Anywhere anywhere between 600.00 $ to 900.00 $, depending on area, rarity and condtion.

I just received in the mail a basically new Husqvarna H5000 270 win from the original owner who bought it new test fired it and never shot it again !
There is a few minor scuffles in the wood but otherwise in mint condition

Weatherby Fan - beautiful rifle!! Good find.

I would never swap out my factory trigger, but it has been polished. My 1640 30-06 circ. 1961 Monte Carlo can hit .375 moa with the the longest sized 180 gr and 150 gr federal softpoint.

Sorry folks i meant 0.75 moa.

 

[Baribal]

Nice catch, Weatherby Fan !

That’s for the great identification posts! I just acquired my grandpas Husqvarna rifles!

There are some great looking rifles here, thanks for posting the pictures guys.

 

[xeronegative]

Is there somewhere that I can cross reference my serial number to get the model and year of manufacture?
