Justcurious, difficult to say, I guess if it turns out to be good value for money then it will probably be a good seller. If it looks to be mainly machine made with little hand work, than $10000 is too much and it probably wont sell well.

I guess they stuck with the round top action for cost reasons, the square bridge even one adds dramatically to the cost of manufacture.

Having a drilled and tapped round top action also means that people can choose their own scope mounts of which there is a huge choice. If you have for example a DSB then the appropriate machining has to be performed more or less before bluing and then you are far more limited in your choices. Most German gunmakers like to use the Recknagel swing off rings which are nice but add a lot of height to the scope and are not that popular in other countries. Tally rings can be mounted nice and low but the Germans don't seem to like to use them (Heym being an exception).

Remember these rifles are supposed to be an off the shelf gun rather than a full custom.
