I see on the EE lately there's been plenty of older anschutz 64 actions for sale such as the 180 and 190. These seem to be selling for somwhere around 350-500. Considering a new Anschutz 64 action is at least $1000 new, this seems like an excellent buy. Are these older 64 actions as good as the newer ones? Should the accuracy be comparable?
Older Anschutz 64 actions compared to new?

A friend shoots an older CIL 190 made by Anschutz. It has the same action as the model 64. This rifle will shoot equal to my newer Anschutz MPR.
That said he is a better rifle shooter than I.

Hi there Super 7. I have both an Anschutz/CIL 310 and an Anschutz 1415-1416, and though both are 64 actions, there is a slight difference between the two. My computer will not allow me to download pics of both guns, so, maybe others would be able to show a picture of the back of their bolt on either model for comparison.
I can tell you though, my Annie/CIL 310 is very accurate. I have a target that I shot at 75 yards that can be easily covered with a dime (thought I would post a pic, but again, my computer will not allow it to be downloaded). Thats with CCI Blazer ammo ($2.99/box). Both my rifles love this stuff. Most of my shooting is informal shooting without aid of a bench, so, I know the rifle is much more accurate than me.
Comparing both, the Anshcutz 1415-1416 is a bit better of a rifle. Substantially better, I would say no. Better bluing, yes, nicer wood, not nicer than my 310. I would easily say that if my 310 had a Schnabel forearm, I would not have a problem selling my 1415-1416. The fact of the matter is, all my rifles have Schnabel forearms, so, this is my practice rifle.
