Questions about the 54:18 BR-50

At the Custom Shop we built a small number of 54:18 BR-50 repeating rifles for our customer base.  These were built from a very small batch of 54:18 actions found hidden away on a shelf at the factory in Germany. 

There were 59 of these actions in total at the factory, but the 54:18 had long since been dropped from production.  Because the sport of silhouette evolved into shooters using their tuned 1712 in both classes, the need for a standard rifle faded away and the factory discontinued the 54:18 due to no dealer orders for this model.

With this discovery of these forgotten 54:18 action, we had assumed these would sell quickly as barreled actions to shooters looking for a bolt-action repeater fitted with the 54.18 match trigger ( which does not fit the 1710 or 1712 action ), but surprisingly these moved very slow.  To help sales, we started building a few into repeater BR rifles.  These were all priced above the $3000 mark, with some reaching $4000 for high-quality walnut stocks.  Unfortunately we were building these from a dwindling number and finished off the last remaining actions at the end of 2018.  In total, it took nearly three years to move all 59 actions between the Custom Shop and main office in Alabama. 

Here at the Custom Shop we are asked almost weekly to build one of the 54:18 BR-50 rifles, but the factory in Germany has no plans of producing another batch of these actions, so the proverbial well is dry on this model.  You will need to search out the used market for one of these rifles, and if it's under $4000 and in good condition, you might want to make a move on it.  They will only increase in value over time.  We can also verify the serial number if you want to make sure it's from our shop before purchasing.  All 54:18 BR-50 rifles are well documented. 


Accuracy Questions

During the build of a rifle, we extensively test the rifles for accuracy and consistency.  Many times we find that rifles will favor a brand of ammunition over the others, and even show significant preference from lot to lot.  This is well known for many target shooters, but not well understood by new or novice shooters to rimfire.

Before the rifles are shipped, we have evaluated the accuracy of the rifle and provided test targets to the customer.  If for some reason the customer is unable to find a good lot of ammunition or unable to make the rifle shoot to their standards, we will work with them on more test lots of ammunition and suggestions.

We only use two brands and grades of ammo to check accuracy with; RWS R-50 and Lapua Midas +.   We do not QC with any lower grade of ammunition.  Because we import RWS, we often have well over a dozen lots to test from, and this allows us to not only check the rifle's accuracy but to also let the customer know which lot shot the best.

If at the end the customer is not pleased with accuracy, we will take back the rifle and retest the rifle.  If the rifle again produces the similar groups that were initially presented to the customer, we will agree to take back the rifle, damage free, and refund 75% of the original purchase price.
