Krico 700D
One of my customers Just got a Krico 700D in a 300 Win mag. What kind of bases and rings are aval. for this rifle. I can't find any matches on Weaver, Leupold, or Warne?

Ed,
the Krico 700 is nearly 20 years out of production. The only scope mounts I know, are made by Ernst Apel (EAW) and Recknagel.
EAW
Recknagel
I don´t know, about any other outside Germany is making mounts for the Krico.

Martin (and others), what about the model 702 902? Krico seems to be still in business:

However, I'm not sure about who actually manufactures those rifles..... They are currently available in cal 9.3x64, a dandy cartridge indeed!

Was it Krico that marketed centerfire Savage rifles as their own years ago?

I know a German firm did, not sure of who.

@wildboar,
you mean the model 902, or?
1994 the Krico company get out of buisniss, the reason was failures with the Rottwail Paragon project. The Krico rifles today are made by C.D. Europe in Sarezzo at Gardone and Kongsberg/Norway.

The fine and rather appealing Krico 902 are real rifles, not overpriced plastic-and-stamping toys like Blaser.

There was a rather extensive and substantial review of the Krico 902 on the German "Wild und Hund" forum; here you are, enjoy:

http://www.wildundhund.de/forum/viewtopic.php?t=18758

Krico (under Arndt Kriegeskorte, with whom I have phoned a couple of times) is still in business as distributor, inventor and seller. They have outsourced the 902 production to Marocchi (= CD Europe).

Hello Tin Can,
Believe it was Anshutz that had some sort of arrangement with Savage. Several years ago and very active in High Power/XC shooting had been told that Anshutz did offer a 308 bolt gun, not on Savage action, and only able to find a photo of one. Later learned it was priced something near a Buick!! Gave up, but during those days, did see the Anshutz/Savage rifles from time to time.
