Maybe I just don't get it, but what is so dang GREAT about the Anschutz 1710 and 1712 .22 Long Rifle caliber firearms so blasted expensive. I mean, $2,300.00 to $2,500.00 for a bolt action .22 rifle, that sucker should be able to shoot through the eyeballs of a squirrel at 150 yards.
OK, they have a good barrel. But how much "gooder" than a CZ barrel, or a Savage Mark II barrel? Same with the trigger. How much better is a 2-poung pull than a 3-pound pull, if one can even notice the difference.
I'd still love to have one of the above rifles, but don't want to start a "go-fund me" beg & plead, account to get one.
