90lxMauser 458 Lott
I saw this rifle on Gunbroker just as it closed not meeting reserve price. What do you think of it and does the price seem right?

You could not reproduce it for that price. However, the critical issue is whether it feeds properly and reliably. I would only purchase it on a 3 day inspection deal with shooting rights.

do my old eyes deceive me or is the barrel one of those steyr rotoforged ones with the forging lines on the exterior ?
also, being a d r guy that barrel looks awfully long to me- like maybe 28"" ???
nice looking rifle overall. but no sale

500grainsTom,
I think you are seeing flaws in the photo resolution, not structures on the barrel.
As for length, I would guess 25 or 26, but I am open to being wrong.
