    Three New Legal Immigrants

    Recently acquired these three Omark/SportCo model 44's

    Imported them from Australia.
    Two have iron sights, and one is scoped.

    All are .308 winchester.

    All are very good shooters with jacketed bullets at 100 yrds.

    Will probably clean the barrel on the scoped one for cast bullet.

    All three are rated for F-Class or Open Class shooting.

    Nice! Looks like the two with iron sights might be OK for Palma matches too.
    Keep your powder dry,

    I may be wrong but the complete rifles were originally made by Omark Sportco in the 60's when the clubs were changing from 303 to 308 for the 1000 yard matches my brother bought one new through the gun club he was in for $39.00 I think, I do not know how long Sportco made them for but now the actions are made by Total Solution Engineering in Brisbane, if anybody else knows more please chime in and correct me.

    Regards Trevor
