Spent this past weekend in Paris Tenn. attending the Henry County Gun Club Vintage Sniper Rifle World Championship and came home with another toy, a virtually NIB 1986 Steyr SSG69 w/ Kahles ZF84 scope. Really looking forward to getting this to the range and doing a shoot out with my M40

Thanks Gentlemen, now to secure some range time with it and see what she will do.

I have an old 2006 Guns magazine with an article about that rifle. The guy gushes over it. If I can scan it, I'll send it to you.

That would be fantastic sir. Just from doing some dry fire drills I have to say the 60° bolt rotation is nice and it has probably the best trigger I have ever felt.

I tried to get my scanner to work, but no luck. I will bring the magazine to work with me and use the one here. Give me a day or so.

I got some pics of the article. I never got to the scanner. I think the pics are big enough to zoom in on and read.
