EMPIRE RIFLES: OUTSTANDING VALUE

In an apples-to-apples comparison, dollar for dollar, Empire Rifles delivers outstanding value. We do not quote an entry level price then ask our clients to add features to complete the rifle: Empire's price includes the key custom features belonging on a world class hunting rifle.  Empire's Finish Grades include features listed as "options" by other makers, and at a more cost effective price, a complete rifle ready for hunting.  

         RIFLE-TO-RIFLE COMPARISONS

Empire Standard Rifle in Field Grade or Guide Grade: world class rifle in 50+ cartridges from 243 Winchester to 505 Empire. 

Empire Standard Rifle in Professional Grade: A magnum sized Mauser 98 action, guaranteed accuracy, much more rifle than the competition in 50+ cartridges for a wide variety of game.

Empire Standard Rifle in Express Grade: world class machined action, highest quality components, excellent value.  Machined Mauser 98 action and guaranteed performance in the same price class as  model 70 style actions.

Empire Rifles uses a simple pricing philosophy: state a clear price for a complete rifle as it will be delivered.

EMPIRE RIFLES VALUE COMPARISON: EMPIRE DELIVERS OUTSTANDING VALUE
         
Empire quotes a price for a complete rifle, including many of the custom features we think belong on a world class hunting rifle.  Competitors often quote a low opening price, to which options must be added to achieve the "complete" rifle. Empire's Finish Grades include many of these "options" at a price more cost effective than the individual parts, a rifle ready for hunting.
