Izhmash Legion Sobol Premiere
Anybody have one of these? They come in 22lr and 22 WMR, I am hoping I can find a way to import one into the U.S. I have a couple of leads. The last one I found just sold for $995

What qualities make them worth $1000?

When considering US based operations of guides/outfitters, check and see if they are NRA members. If not, why support someone who doesn't support us? Consider spending your money elsewhere.

NEVER, EVER book a hunt with BLAIR WORLDWIDE HUNTING or JEFF BLAIR.

I have come to understand that in hunting, the goal is not the goal but the process.

I have an Izmash Biathlon in 22mag. I reported on how it shot with targets etc. It was very accurate and the sction is extremely fast. The wood is not as nice as shown in your picture.

For a grand,I'm sure it's in the eye of the beholder,but they are very accurate and a unique rifle. I like Peter will have a basic in 22 mag soon. Sobol aren't being imported,so I am stuck with the secondary market for this one. I am also looking for this type of rifle in 22LR.

Might point out that ISSC of Austria is making a Izhmash clone and will be available soon.
