My buddy just got one with the full length stock. I'd never seen one before. It's very nice...obviously well made. Even comes with decent iron sites. Anybody shot one? His is a .243.

I've shot some Maanlichers before.  They are well-made rifles with very smooth actions and good triggers.  The ones I've shot were accurate, but not any more so than any number of less expensive factory rifles.

I like the look of the Ruger International RSI and the CZ 527 & 550 Mannlichers (although the CZs looks to be a bit on the thin side for my liking) but the genuine Mannlichers look absolutely F-U-G-L-Y.
