Gazza0208 Posted March 10, 2015 Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 For those that care, just got this yesterday. I have it in a 223 Tikka T3 with a 10 round mag and a single shot feeder, used it today.........perfect. The rifle just slipped in first time, had to play with the feeder a little to get it to fit right. A lot of time has been spent designing this to get it right, and I think its 99% there. http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t312/gazza0208/IMG_0061_zpsw6fye6ej.jpg http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t312/gazza0208/IMG_0060_zpsuhilihwf.jpg http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t312/gazza0208/IMG_0059_zps8tvclltv.jpg http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t312/gazza0208/IMG_0058_zpsp38ecbgf.jpg http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t312/gazza0208/IMG_0057_zpswgpxgof7.jpg Hate to say I can not ever get any decent photos to upload on this site, so its onto photobucket connections. The rifle will be sellign the rifle soon along with a GRS Sporter Varmit Stock, replacing it with a 6.5x55, and geting a 1:8 to go on this stock.

Toby Posted March 11, 2015 Report Share Posted March 11, 2015 Very nice, but hideously expensive especially if bought in the UK. I havent seen the Norway price but it wouldnt surprise me if it was dearer than the UK price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elwood Posted March 11, 2015 Report Share Posted March 11, 2015 I'm sure it's very well thought out and built, but aesthetically speaking that is horrid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DW58 Posted March 11, 2015 Report Share Posted March 11, 2015 I havent seen the Norway price but it wouldnt surprise me if it was dearer than the UK price. For Tikka T3 fixed stock in .308 - are quoting £819 and in stock - you'd need to add shipping, but I still suspect that would be well below the UK price.

gbal Posted March 11, 2015 Report Share Posted March 11, 2015 Bolthorn: Norway made,GRS quote 10,000 Nkr -around £813,plus shipping.Check out import VAT though-Norway isn't EEC so maybe 20%? I've seen the stock for 1348 euros,and that's around £950,plus shipping. Highland were suggesting £1099 recommended price.....don't know what this currently is in reality.... Any price not in sterling is subject to currency fluctuations-down or up,as with the dollar,as are £ prices for non UK made items. It can be complicated,as supply isn't always immediate.... gbal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've bought from - many times, and often muilti-hundred pound orders, I've never been charged anything on import. Norway is part of the formet EFTA agrement, but non-EU - I'm not 100% sure where this puts it in terms of postal imports, but as I say I've never been charged. Bought a Magnetospeed V3 from - in the Autumn, saved quite a bit on UK prices even after shipping and no charges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbal Posted March 11, 2015 Report Share Posted March 11, 2015 Robcf "I'm not 100% sure...Can't be clearer than that"...and all I said was check first,lest there be a surprise,not that there must be-let's hope the Gov.UK "Imports from outside the UK" on EFTA in the "Community Transit" section are interpreted in our favour,as has been your experience: "Community Transit..allows customs and excise duties to be suspended until goods either reach their point of destination in the community,or are exported out of it." There may have been a small limit exemption,but probably way below £800;your experience seems encouraging,despite what the quote seems to imply.Hence 'check'.

Gazza0208 Posted March 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2015 If you imported goods from Norway it seems to me you are suggesting (or I would) its under the £400 (5000Nkr) limit, therefore it may well have been listed as a "gift", and if it was I would not advertise it to much on open conversation sites, Personally, by experience, its far too expensive on shipping from Norway before you start nowdays, so that can be a bind on the OAL price. But Central Europe is very competitve and very very cheap on shipment costs so that can help considerably. I assume soon we will all go the same system as the new USA one where the taxes are collect at source, cutting out RMG collecting another £12 for admin on paperwork... Heres two sites to help confirm the legal process and costings of import/export that I found helpful, the duty one only lets you have a few free hits BTW. http://www.bring.com/all-of-bring/products-and-services/norway-import-and-export and http://www.dutycalculator.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
