I have seen a couple big bore Empire rifles for sale lately. I know nothing about them and haven't come up with much.

Any info appreciated.

They were built in early 2000's in New Hampshire. Built on new CNC mfg.Mauser actions (some at least by GMA). The work was farmed out to various gunsmiths for bbl. work, stock work etc. Everything I've seen, says they were excellent rifles in all respects and they were priced well.

A bad habit that I acquired early in life. Too late to change now...
