Has anyone ever seen, owned, shot, been familiar with a Yost actioned rifle? L have one in the shop right now and wanted to learn a little more about them.

Thanks!

Marc,

Go here http://www.yostaction.com/yostmfg.html and here http://www.yostaction.com/

You will then know about as much as I do (probably more). The business was up for sale along with about 6 actions around 6-9 months ago. A buddy tried to contact them about buying it, but after 2 weeks of trying to get a response, he finaly got a "it's been sold" response. Anyway, there have been 3-4 actions on the auction sites in the last year, but that is the extent of my knowledge.

THanks for the link. I found those when first contacted me about the Yost project a couple of weeks ago, but I was just curious if anyone here had any extra info.

Did the actions on the auction site sell? And if so, do you know for about how much? Not that it matters, I was just curious.

Marc,
IIRC one went for around $450 (I was kinda kicking myself for not bidding) and the others went in the 600 range. Don't hold me too that as gospil though. I might have had a drink or two since then and I know I've slept! I believe there are some folks with knowledge of them on the ASSR forum. I did a search and it looks like the folks that bought the business are starting to make actions. Search for Yost in all and forever if this link doesn't work.
