Well, I came across at work a Steyr-Daimlich-Puch SL in .222 Rem at work today for a steal of a price. It's kind of beat and I'd like to turn it into a project gun.

Is there any people out there that even work on these regularly? Possible rebarrel/chamber for a .223 Rem and a bedding job. Does anyone make modern stuff for this rifle? Fiberglass stocks, 1913 scope bases, etc etc.

It's almost identical to this minus the condition.

Thanks.
 
Re: Steyr Gunsmiths.

I'm no steyr expert, but that action looks very similar, if not the same, as the SSG69 I had...double set trigger and all.

McMillan made an A3 to fit the SSG.

The SSG barrel is pressed, not threaded, into the action. No idea if yours is the same, but seems likely.

Thanks for the info, I'll hold off on it.
