The new rifle I see is still based on the Rem 700 Action. The Nightforce scopes are rugged as you can get.
I thought they might have gone with the new Hornady 30 round but staying with the tried and proven 300Win Mag.
From what I hear and read--they are also going to use them in 6.5 Creedmoor--there is a 6 page article about it in this months GUNS AND AMMO
A lot of gun guys I visit with tell me Rem actions are one of the easiest actions to get to shoot well mostly because of the design..have several customs built on them and they are true one holers..
Agree on the Nightforce as well..great scopes..bomb proof or aweful close--my only complaint is weight--will not use them on my mtn rifles..but all others, absolutely..have one on my .338 Lapua--works very well in all aspects..
