Bump. Still available, and bargainous compared to new prices.

I'll take it for my club, posted please.

The stock appears to be ca 1971-72 vintage (stippled grip, fixed cheekpiece). The bolt is about the same ('66 to '76).

For reference, the screws for the barrel 'scope blocks and foresight mount are also M3, and the grub screws that blank of the holes on 1980s barrels fit the raiser dovetail.

Perfect!

Huey, The grubscrews lock the dovetail onto the studs.

Does anyone have a grubscrew for a Tec-Hro 2.0 riser? Or does anyone know the size?

Kantes, That's an 1813, from the early 1980s.

What, like tutting and coughing?

Hi, Sorry, yes it sold. Tim

Hi, if still available can I have the: Anschutz pull through/wicks blue sling HPS folding bipod. What colour is the bipod? Tim

Bump £250

There was one on eBay last month, but sold as Anschutz. It may return when the buyer finds it won't fit.

Can the broken pieces not be glued together, and the grip reinforced with a dowel or threaded rod?

Do they? I see a 1610S-50?1 stock, part no 78 on the 1980 1807-1813 handbook.

Nope, there is no trigger access hole, and no relief for the bolt-mounted safety. It's a 1610, or an early 1810, made before the cooling vents were cut into the fore-end.

I would agree with Michelle. That is not a 1407. A 1407 stock was made to comply with UIT Standard Rifle rules which prohibited adjustable cheekpieces, thumbhole grips, and butt adjustment during a match. What you have is a 1610/1609 or early 1810/1809stock. It was a no-frills version of the 1613/1813 Supermatch that offered the same degree of butt adjustment, but was made of beechwood not walnut, and was sold without a palmrest. The very deep fore-end compensated for the latter. There was a 1410 stock made in the 1970s, but those had a hole in the stock by the bolt slot to access the trigger adjustments, so it must be for a 16 or 18 series rifle. When sold with a heavy barrel it was a xx10, and became a xx09 with the lighter xx07 barrel. It's worth more than a 1407.

I'll ask the seller.

I'd say it's fairly good. There is no rust on the bluing, and the stock finish has no major dings. I think there is a chip/scuff on the bottom of the grip. The handstop (Anschutz 4752) has a broken QD lever and lost the anodising, but functions.

This is on behalf of one of my club members, who is retiring from Prone shooting. Anschutz 1613 (1979 manufacture) / 1813 stock. The barrel was rechambered by Robert Nibbs in 2012 (re-proofed at Birmingham) and has had very light use since. Sights are the standard Anschutz 6702 (steel) rear, and froresight tunnel. The rearsight has a Gehmann dioptre/iris. £350 The rifle is located on the Devon/Somerset border. No photos at present, but I'll speak to the seller about getting some.

Afternoon all, I'm looking for four Chicago screws, the size/type used in ESE slings for a project. I know I can get thede on eBay, but I don't need a giant bag, just four.

Russell, at 14lb Mk II will probably be a little heavier than a 2313 Anschutz. The Anschutz isn't a lighweight, and the 2013 action is a little heavier than a Match 54 (in 1813s 1913s), but the BSA is heavy. The Anschutz may feel lighter, as the weight is better distributed; most will balance slightly ahead of the receiver, whereas a Mk II balances much further ahead, as most of the weight is in that massive barrel.

Ah, a 1903, it's probably 1990s vintage.

James, Blimey you must be good! You'd have to be going some to knacker a barrel in fours years shooting Prone/3-P; Anschutz reckon their barrels are good for 100,000 rounds, with some lasting longer, and some a little less. Unless a four year old barrel has been owned by a very serious shooter, or bulged, or cleaned with a rusty coat hanger and battery acid, I'd expect it to have a good amount of life left, at least by my standards. I know of early-production 1813s that are still producing competitive scores at county level, although others of the same vintage have given up the ghost, to be replaced by a Border/Maddco/Lilja etc. Huey, that's quite right, although as the 1813 was produced for a fairly short space of time, you have a good enough idea. Now with a 1913 the exact age is more important, the barrel could be 1987 or 2017. This is assuming the seller knows what they have. That's not an issue here, but some owners think everything is a 1913.

That seems high, unless the barrel is in very good condition, as the Ultra latterly went for £900 new. My '79 vintage 1613 looked immaculate when I retired in in 2010, but it wouldn't consistently hold the 10-ring at 100 yards.
