Export/import rifle to Australia?

G’day all,
I just discovered that a rifle I ordered is not coming.
Now, I placed an order here with Winchester Australia for a Win Model 70 EW in 264WM and was told today that production of that rifle has ceased, this is total BS as they are still listed on the website.

So, can anyone here tell me the best place to source one and the best prices, or whom to export through?

I imported a rifle several years ago, but I took possession of it there and brought it back with me, a different process is needed to do it from here.

Thanks in advance, any help appreciated.

Cheers.

Might be quicker to fly over and get this one.... Add about 1,000 bucks to the price to get it here through dealers.

Cheers,
Mark.

Near as I can tell,. each AU state seems to have their own rules. Probably need to get import permit to AU, then deal with the US rules,,,exporter can handle that I think . Last time I did that cost about $400.00 US

Thank you all for replying, I have the cash sitting here, it doesn’t bother me paying extra. Every place I enquired with wanted me to provide an FFL dealer to ship to, this info I do not have yet. This is where I am struggling to get help with.
I know what to do this end, it’s the US end I need help with.

Cheers.
