A beautiful custom magazine rifle by Hambrusch of Ferlach, Austria. Hambrusch (established in 1752) is known primarily for its fine double rifles, double guns and drillings, but they also continue to create excellent magazine rifles. This rifle is built on an engraved commercial FN Mauser action which has a tang safety and custom double square bridge scope bases with Talley rings holding a German Zeiss 3-9x36 Diavari-C scope with duplex reticle and German T* coated lenses. The 1/3 octagon 2/3 round 22" barrel is chambered for the .280 Ackley Improved cartridge. it has an excellent bore, integral top rib and front sight and is extremely accurate. The European walnut stock has a 13 1/4" length of pull to its original horn buttplate and an engraved 3 round cartridge trap inletted into its toe. The rifle is in excellent mechanical and cosmetic condition with a few minor handling marks on the stock. Comes with (5) 20 round boxes of Nosler 140 grain ammunition and a box of (50) Nosler unprimed cases. The rifle has a very interesting previous owner and history with provenance. Peter Hambrusch in Ferlach quoted the current cost to build a comparable rifle would be U S $12,500 plus the cost of scope, shipping and duty, with a six month production time. This is an excellent example of a world class magazine rifle to add to your collection or hunting arsenal. Many additional photos available via email.
