k31 prices

I've mostly been using Varget and starting with Reloader 17, which(Reloader 17) is actually made in Swizterland by the same company that made the powder for the GP11.
Can use the same load of RL17 as in GP11 IF Berdan primers and GP11 case are used. Boxer primer loads should be reduced.

Pierre of Swiss Products have done testing with IMR 4064 and 175gr SMK;

I haven't tried the 175gr in either my K-31 or K-11, but I've used both 4064 and 4895 and, although either are more than adequate, I've permanently switched to 4350 since I've found that a larger quantity of slow-burning powder in a large case such as the 7.5mm Swiss has given me much more consistent groups (both on paper and according to the Chrony). My pet load is 50.0gr of IMR4350 behind a Hornady 168gr HPBT; I was out on this range this weekend and my bone stock K-11 with this load shot like a laser compared to my 7.62 DCRA LE No.4 (to the point that I had to stop myself from selling it on the EE when I got home!!!:eek:)

RL17 and IMR4350 very similiar in the 7.5x55.

Just a matter of finding the right buyer...

If i wanted a K31 i would pay what i feel it is worth, if i am not looking for it, then i would not buy it.

so it just be that no one looking was thinking about getting one.

all matter of timing.

I got mine for $275 shipped earlier this year before the new ones at dealers started popping up. Now prices are adjusted accordingly to the dealers.
 
ahh k31

There you go bringing up the k31. I paid 400 4 months ago for a fairly nice one with some markings, nice wood and great bore. Later year with improved steel or whatever they did to them.Was it to much? Not a deal that's for sure. But around thede seems right. Im jealous of the old boys these things wouldve been a bargain back in the day. I want one for the safe and one for hunting next year could somebody pm me with the location of those cheap rifles. Id feel allot better bringing one of those out
