How much better would that make you feel if it cost $4000 and shot like that?

 

[Nomosendero]

Then I would feel it HAS to shoot like that!

That's the rifle I've been looking for. I can't seem to find it around here. Sure looks like a good shooter. The ads I saw for that rifle listed it at around $600.00+ which is a steal. Congrats, hope you enjoy it.

Just buy it on line and have it shipped to your FFL, that's what I did.

Sounds like a plan. I did that twice and the FFL holders gouged me big time. Different FFL holders both times. I might just do that again and do some (better) research .

You should never pay more than 20$ for ffl fee. Get a concealed permit and you walk out the door w/o waiting on the paperwork, some states are different tho.

Nice find and shooting happy. I read a good review on the M18 awhile back. One line made me chuckle:
"The M18 stock and barrel finishes come in any color you want, as long as it's black. The Mauser M18 is billed as "The People's Rifle" (Volksgewehr).

If you look on Gunbroker.com there is an FFL locator that includes costs.

How far do you want to drive? My LGS charges $30 and is close.

Had to have a PRC and EuroOptics came out with their sale on Mauser M18s.

Bought one and put a Athlon Midas 6-24 (another great bargain) on it.

Cleaned bbl with Bore Tech.

Off to range with a box of Hornady match ammo.

3 sighters (one shows on target) and 5 for record.

Looks like a keeper. Have to get it threaded up for can.

The M18?

It feels dense and has rubberized grips embedded, feels solid and looks and feels better then a Ruger or Mossberg synthetic. Pretty similar to a Tikka

thank you seems like a very good inexpensive rifle not a cheap one

Three 6.5 PRC's and a 6.5 I planned convert to PRC...holding off in case they come out with one and I can sell the Creedmoor version.

Compared to the Tikka super light stock, the Mauser stock feels better.

They all shoot sub MOA, .75 at worst. Never tried with factory ammo so your results will be different unless you reload.
