I'm looking at a NIB Steyr-Mannlicher MIII Professioal rifle with the cyrolac stock. Anyone have any experiences with this particular model. It seems to me that several years ago, I read of mechanical problems with this rifle. I can't recall where I read this info. Advancing years do take their toll. Any and all info would be appreciated.

I have had two of them for a number of years and have never had any trouble with mine. Two is not a big enough universe to make any generalizations from, though...

I have had several Steyr rifles over the years.
Including a Professional in 30-06.
All the ones I had were the ones with the multiple locking lugs at the rear of the bolt.
I still have my first, a Mannlicher Stocked 308.
All of were great shooters very accurate.
The only problem I had was I broke the trigger guard magazine retaining assembly on my SSG 69 durring a Sniper Match, while shooting.
My agency used the SSG 69 as a issue Sniper rifle for several years. Thousands of rounds fired, no problems.

Stoneybroke, Back in the late 1980's I shot a professional in .30-06 and had numerous problems keeping a trigger guard/magazine assembly in the rifle. It was accurate and I got my Dall ram with it, but I was plagued by doubt and didn't trust it as you would a fine rifle.

As much as I like the Steyr rifles, I like the Blaser R 93 better. Take a look [in person] at one of them.
