ezearln · 08-16-2007, 04:30 PM

hmmmm? I hasn't never shot one.

BattleRifleG3 · 08-16-2007, 08:45 PM

I liked mine so much I got it a twin.

WarHammer52 · 09-02-2007, 03:29 PM

Just bought an old Steyr 8mm Rifle with straight pull bolt. Need to find a book or someone that has one.

Johnnycat · 09-03-2007, 08:04 AM

I have a Steyr SBS ProHunter (now manufactured under Mannlicher, I believe) in .308.

Best shooting rifle I have ever shot.

The steyr m1a is the next gun on my list to purchase, when I pick it up in the gun store it just seems to become part of my hand. Hope a gun ban doesnt go into effect before I can pick it up, have to wait on my tax return.

BattleRifleG3 · 09-23-2007, 08:48 AM

I don't think Steyr pistols are on the front end of a ban, though 10+ rd mnagazines would be.

Sounds like a 95, 8 x 56 Rimmed. New production ammo is out there-try Graffs, dies are available, bullets are available but expensive (they are .329 OD). I resize Speer Hot Core .338 bullets in a Lee resizing die, and they work great. You can get brass or resize 7.62 x 54R and fireform. Expect it to shoot HIGH. I haven't gotten around to machining new front sites, and my shop is so busy it looks like maybe next year, but the front site needs to be taller. I have infantry rifle and carbine and cavalry carbine. Carbines kick more than my Mosin 38. Very well made and interesting rifles. Check the book "Firearms Assembly and Diassembly" for instructions. I also have a 1912 Steyr Hahn. Now I want to get a shop to grind a carbide insert for the steel die I bought to reload 9mm Steyr. Enjoy the new rifle. And that Steyr pistol looks great! I'd like to get one.

Just shot my new tactical elite 308 with S&B 3X12. Awsome rifle. Not as light as my Sauers but shot 10 shot group in a clover leaf at 150 meters. I have not seen many of this model ever but happy I found her.

elmer fudd · 03-26-2008, 09:16 PM

nice looking gun about how much was it?

Cranet561 · 03-27-2008, 07:24 PM

The tactical elite is usually expensive, I found this one in a Bass Pro shop in orlando. I paid $1500, which incredibly reasonable.

elmer fudd · 03-27-2008, 07:57 PM

no that is a nice gun but i was asking about the pistol

Binks · 04-07-2008, 05:09 PM

I have a Steyr SSG 69 P1 sniper rifle.

I have been shooting this rifle for 30 years. It was my army weapon for 16 years.

It is very reliable. I have no problem with the Steyr sniper rifle.
