The Steyer made Chileans are at the height of military rifle making practice. When you remove the barreled action from the stock and look at the inletting think about what it would cost to duplicate that today. The in-letting on popular American weapons of the same era looks like a rough hewn log compared to them. Of course speed of manufacture was primarily not the concern at the time but they are fit better than a lot of custom offerings of today, the workmanship is amazing for mass produced arms and the pride of workmanship is evident from the Austrian factory.
