Eland SlayerSingle-Shot Mannlicher rifles...
What are the different brands/models of single-shot rifles with mannlicher stocks? I have a fascination with them, and would like to purchase one in the near future....
The only two I currently know of are the CZ Brno Effect FS and the Blaser K 95 Stutzen. Obviously, I would love to buy a K 95....but at roughly $8,000....I just can't.
The Brno looks like a decent rifle...
Any suggestions??

Dakota makes a really beautiful one. Model 10 I think it is.

GeedubyaES,
I feel yo' pain.
I hate paying full price for anything. It is hard to find a K95 Stutzen or a Merkel Jagd Stutzen cheap. I know, 'cause I've been looking for several years now.
A number of options.
The K95 is pricey.
A Merkel K1 or K3 Jagd Stutzen is in my future as soon as I recover from my current state of "financial embarrassment".

You could do a single shot Stutzen with :
Browning High Wall Action,
G2 Contender
Ruger#1
I've owned several full stocked CZ's, some of them have some reasonable wood and they are accurate.
Not a single shot, but the Sako Bavarian Carbine pictured below has temporarily assuaged the symptoms of Merkelmania and can be had for about 1/2 the price.
Best
