Bennie Laubscher 7x64

I have decided to buy a Bennie Laubscher 7x64 being sold here in England.

I am told that they are a well thought of maker in SA.

But what sort of accuracy would I expect at 100 yards with good factory ammunition?

Also any opinions of this, his medium calibre, rifles would be welcome.

Thanks all!

A lot of that depends on the nut applying pressure to the trigger.

Laubscher & Joubert rifles are out there, and seem to be quite high-end builds.

He is a gunsmith/ builder from Paarl, South Africa. I have seen some of his rifles and they are good.

This is the rifle of which I write. I have satisfied myself that the 'nut applying pressure to the trigger' will be adequate to the task of testing it...

Bennie and his team know what they are doing, both bolt action and double guns.

I like the cross-over chequering, something we don't see much of these days. If the barrel and bedding are as good as the finish, it should should group within one or two MOA - well enough for stalking distances in Africa and the UK. What is the asking price, if that's not a rude question?
