Is anyone familiar with the Husquarvarna rifles that were sold under the Smith and Wesson name? I had one in 7mm Mag that I bought in 1972. I subsequently sold it for nearly nothing. I also saw one in 22-250. Sure would like to have one again.

  Those were the Model A through E and all were chambered for 243, 270, 30-06 and 308, but the Model A also came in 22-250, 7mm Rem. Mag., and 300 Win. Mag.
  
  The rifles were mfg. from 1969 - 1972 and each had a 5 shot capacity except for the two magnum chamberings which had a 3 round capacity.
  
  Each model had differences in stock and barrel length, etc.
  
  In today's market you are probably looking at $400 to $500 for one in top condition.
  
  
  
  If you only have time to do two things so-so, or one thing well ... do the one thing!

  I own a model A, 300 Win, and a model B, 308 Win. They are really good rifles. The model B is my favorite rifle and I own 50+. They are a good buy for the money. Around here, central Indiana, they are rather rare. Once in a while one comes up for auction on GB. They are a good buy if you can get one for $400 - 500.
