You don't mention what you want to do with the rifle - but if you plan to hunt Africa with it, I'd advise buying something else.

As I said earlier, I'm a great fan of Sabi Rifles in SA - they custom build made to measure rifles at a very competitive price and with the weakening exchange rate between the US$ and Rand, now is a very good time to order. The stock they have NOW was bought at a strong Rand price so they haven't put their prices up yet and you'll be paying with a stronger dollar. If you hanker for a custom rifle, now is the time to order one. - There are pics of two of their rifles over on the Mauser section of this forum.......

If you want an off the shelf rifle for a bit less money, there's plenty out there but I'd recommend something with a dull finish, a properly sited safety and a floor plate magazine.
