Steyr Arms Pro Hunter 30-06

I want one bad.  They feel fantastic but they look funky.  I'm slipping toward buying one and putting one of those entry level Ziess scopes on it.

I was thinking about getting one but what bothered me was the stock, somewhat flimsy with a lot of movement in the forearm area.

I actually like the look of the Prohunter but got a Tikka T3 Lite Stainless instead. I put a Zeiss conquest on it and installed a limbsaver precision-fit recoil pad. It purrs like a kitten and shoots dime-sized groups if I do my part.

There was one for sale on "the 24 hour campfire" forum a couple of days ago.  It may still be available.  IIRC, the asking price was in the $500-$600 range.

If you get one, go for the upgraded stock. I heard it's black, not grey, and much stiffer.  ;)
