OldBill Posted October 8, 2006 Report Share Posted October 8, 2006 Okay, Just getting my FAC- had a rimmie when I was a lad but their appeal faded when I joined the mob and played with the big toys. I have already purchased an Anschutz semi with mod and bipod which the dealer is keeping for now. A quick Google seems to favour them but the plethora of Rugers vastly outnumber them. Apart from the hen's teeth issue of parts, what's the general feeling regarding them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dead-Eyed Duck Posted October 9, 2006 Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 Had one for a few years, and sold it to a mate who is still using it. Lots of creep on the trigger which can be greatly helped by fitting a trigger shoe. As accurate as an other standard semi on the market. Easy to clean and strip. The magazines are a lot easier to maintain that some. Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC Posted October 9, 2006 Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 Anschutz are the best rifle you can buy bar none, just ask any smallbore target rifle shooter. There is no competition, they have excellent barrels and superb triggers. You have done the right thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldBill Posted October 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 I don't know how old mine is - neither does the dealer! But it's in good nick, with a mod, decent bipod and a HUGE sight (didn't see a name) but was assured the previous owner paid £140 for the sight alone. All for the princely sum of £130.

Oly Posted October 10, 2006 Report Share Posted October 10, 2006 Anschutz are second to none! I don't have any experience of their semi's but I have an .22 Anschutz 64MPR bolt action and it's accuracy and build quality is superb. Many of my friends also shoot Anschutz and all can't fault them. I too was concerned about parts as this is only the second of this model in the country according to the importer - Frank Dyke, London - however parts are easily ordered through a dealer and normally don't take long to arrive - probably the best rifle you'll ever own!
