Thinking of getting a 222 rem ,my uncle as a rws 89 in new cond only shot 60 rounds ,any body know anything about them, any help most wecome ,thanks steve:-d
I am surprised that someone else hasn't answered your question yet dollman but here goes and I stand to be corrected if I am wrong.
I believe from what I have read elsewhere that these rifles were made for RWS in Japan by the company that makes Howa and Weatherby rifles. I am not entirely certain but if my memory is correct previously they were made for RWS by an Italian company.
The RWS 89 is reputed to be a good quality rifle with few frills but solid construction.
Now I will stand back and wait to be corrected.
One site I was at says that the RWS 89 is Howa built, indeed. Handsome rifle and it will probably shoot well. My only beef with Howa guns is the trigger assembly. I replace them with Timney triggers if fine shooting is required.~Muir
