Anybody got a contact for parts for this rifle. Looking for a bolt. Has lugs on front and safety on shroud.
 
What caliber do you have a problem with ? What is your problem? I ask because I have one of these in a 300 win mag , mine has no issues but I'm wondering what others may have experienced
 
I'm not home now to measure mine or get accurate info but I can get for you , if it's like mine it has a weatherby style bolt but different safety . Just thinking that the weatherby bolt might work with some mods . I've had mine for a few years and their hard to find info on never mind parts . I will follow for interest . I'll post a pic of my bolt when I get home
 
Vohrenbach is not a model...that is the city where it was built. ( Voere has two plants: Vohrenbach and Kufstein in Austria) To get further, look for the model number on your rifle, it should show "Model 2145" or "Model 2250" or something like that...Voere always named their rifles with a 4 digit number.
I'd send an email to: office@voere.at ,they even have spare parts for their 70 year old guns...but find out your model first.If you don't find it on the rifle, go to www.voere.com , switch site to english (starts out in german) and go trough their model list and visually identify what you got.

Good advice. No model number on this one. Serial Number is 723###. I've sent an inquiry to the factory. I'll let folks know the response. Not the 1st time a rifle bolt has been lost or misplaced. Ron

That's the bolt I need. Anybody got one? Voere replied to my email....they can not help. Only stock parts for current models. Any leads greatly appreciated. Ron
 
Still looking for a complete bolt. Factory has gone through a change in Ownership and had no parts for these mid 70's rifle. Any one have one tucked away or knows of one pls PM. Ron
 
Id start looking for the lost bolt. Id be shocked all the way to hell if you even managed to find a bolt for it. You could always give Western Gun Parts a call. Again I doubt they have it but its worth a check.
 
I would look for another rifle of the same model, buy it, and then use the same bolt in both rifles. Most likely the headspace would be within tolerance, but if not then you could have the barrel turned in and rechambered to correct that.

Either that, or sell it bto someone who want to do the same.

I have a friend up here who lost the bolt for his SAKO 338 Win Mag years ago. The easiest solution was to get another one in 7mm Rem Mag, and have two nice rifles and be happy.

Is this the twin "why not" is talking about ?
 
In North America the most Voere expertise is found in Texas. The guy with the connection to Weatherby was Robert Kleinguenther and he was importer and accurizer of Voere.
Obit: https://www.legacy.com/obituaries/sanantonio/obituary.aspx?n=robert-armin-kleinguenther&pid=92236181
Kleinguenther Distinctive Firearms still carries on as KDF in Seguin, Texas but they are more of a custom shop rather than have much to do with the Voere rifles. Google search Standard Firearms in Huffman Texas for good english language history of Voere models. That business buys/sells Voere rifles and sell some parts like magazines - a used magazine is in neighborhood of $350 US so can't imagine what one would pay for a bolt.
 
Still searching for a bolt.

Searched Sporteque and found they were in Drummonville, Quebec however they no longer have a reachable website. Anybody from the area know if they are still around?

Found Standard Firearms website - good info and nice stuff. Sent an inquiry however don't have a response.

Like to get this gun up and running. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Don't know if this information is too late, but I found this thread looking for information on Voere

website is up at www.sporteque.ca

I called them last week for an unrelated purchase at this number (819) 477-7144, and they picked up and were quite helpful

Good luck!
