My friend has just tested this one. He is a kind of pro because he tests all availabele modern rifles to local hunters jounal. I phoned him yesterday and we discussed about this rifle. He said this is his favourite among all those straight pull rifles he had shot (Blaser, Mauser, Steel Action etc.). He described rifles function very solid and precise. Bolt slides very well back and forward. He likes rifles ergonomics too. As a designer I do not like rifles design details so much but despite that it could be a good tool for hunters who like driven game.
Thanks for that.
I think it's a least a good solid rifle. In the proper rifle style. Not a plastic gimmick rifle like the Blaser. And many other modern designs.
If one wanted a modern straight pull bolt action for reloading speed, at least this seems a solid rifle. Subject to how good that locking lug mechanism is. Negatives are the three shot standard magazine. The stock design is pretty ordinary. And so far only .308. My guess is the choice of cartridge chamberings will be limited.
