Stenoshooter, the rifle in the link above is a 1911 Prone Rifle not a 1913 Supermatch. It's probably an honest mistake as 1911 and 1913 barrels are identical, and are all marked as 1913. However a 1913 is the top of the range model with a fancy fully adjustable stock. The 1911 is not at all bad, bu...

Stenoshooter, the Anschutz 1903 isn't a bad rifle (read inaccurate), but it's generally considered a junior weight option.

First Off, WELCOME to the site. I do not suggest purchasing a 1903 Anschutz. I say this only because once you are started, your going to be hooked. and eventually you will desire a more adjustable and more accurate rifle. might as well start with a better quality and work up to it, I'm not saying n...
