I’m attempting to buy this at the moment, I think it’s a good price - AU$1200 (US$600 in equivalent gun value). The buyer is difficult to contact and so far the only detail it has is that it’s been rebarreled to 22-250. The bolt handle looks to me to have rather fresh bluing, and more curve than I would’ve thought. I’m not particularly well versed on Kurz sporters or even on Oberndorf sporters in general. Can anyone else pick out some points I need to investigate over the phone. Is lug set-back a concern in these early actions with something like 22-250? This would be a sight unseen purchase - it’s not worth the 24hr round trip to see it in person. I’d be looking to rebarrel to 250-3000 and use as a hunting rifle, partly for my sons. Or if the 22-250 is good and a fast twist (unlikely) keep as is, or put a new fast twist 22-250 barrel on it.
Anyone know what brand the scope is?
