CZ, Sako, Ruger, Kimber?

I would say that's much too light... I would add 1 pound 11 ounces to the gun to bring it up to a comfortable 10.5 pounds. this should make the gun much more shootable and will allow for a respectable amount of practice.

the Win M70 I shot was a brand new gun, the owner was just breaking it in... or trying to before the sharp pain to the shoulder stopped him. he had both me and another shooter (both very experienced with heavy rifles) try the gun and we agreed it was horrible. perhaps the gun fits some people just right and doesn't feel bad to shoot or perhaps people are putting a very heavy scope on it (the gun I tried was just iron sights).

I cant comment on the Kimber Caprivi other then that its VERY LIGHT. I handled a Caprivi in 458 Lott at the Dallas gun show and it was under 8 pounds which was just silly for its chambering.

Kimber Caprivi 458 Lott under 8 pounds? hmmmm you might want to double check that
 
I see the title listed with "CZ, Sako, Ruger and Kimber".
Any thought of a Balser?
Lots of DG calibers and you can customize the weight with the options you choose.
375H&H is offered in 3 barrel profiles, and
Add to that you can drop in a 12 oz. kickstop for the heavy stuff if you wish.
 
If Blaser rifles cost about half of what they do I might get one. But I like my model 70s just fine
Every now and then you can find one that was used for a real bargain.
Most of the used ones are in very good condition as well.
However I do agree with you that they are not cheap by any means.

Hi Dr. Ray, I will be in Cooktown from Oct 16 to Oct 23 fishing Lizard Island Black Marlin Tournament.

I have several "slack" days after fishing before I head for stay in Sydney and Fiji.

Do you have any recommendations for 1 or 2 day hunt near Cooktown?

I've hunted both DG and PG in 4 different countries in Africa.
Thank you,
Bob

Good morning. I see that you had a Sauer 202 for sale for $3,000. Did you sell it at that price?
I have one for sale as well. I listed it (on here ) at $3,000 as well. Is the price high, low or right where it should be?

Thanks. Alex. [redacted] in case you want to call me to discuss further. I appreciate your time help and support.

Dave, I could use both of them if still available. I just picked up a new .22 mag and a .22 pump that they would be perfect on.
