New Anschutz Centrefire Rifle

It wasn't me!

Anyone looking for a new .223 should have a look at the new one Anschutz have brought out. It looks very, very snazzy, and based on Anschutz's other rifles, should be an absolute tack driver.

Snazzy, snazzy rifle

Looks very well too.

Beautiful rifle alright. Lot of good reviews written about it as well. Tried googling it for a price but no luck so far.

I'm going to have to demand a slice of the coke and hookers from the next mod paycheque for this one!

Fine looking rifle alright would be suprsied to see it for under 1500 euro with Anschutz's rep. Would love to be proven wrong doe..

Thanks IWM, I'll put you down for some C&H so

Does it come with different stock options. On heavy barrelled rifles I don't like the curved fore end and the hogs back style stock.

It doesn't seem to, but Anschutz are very accommodating in my experience, so I'm sure you could have a word with them and they'd sort you out, for a small fee. Definitely a company that you can talk to and deal with on a personal level. Uwe himself called DURC with regard to an order some years ago. Personally, I really like the stock and barrel configuration.

I dunno IWM, I think I'd prefer one of these:


No scope, no rest (just a sling) at 300m prone leads to this:


Now that's sweet

Well Sparks, one of these



is currently second on my to-do list, so I've complete interest in the 300m scene, but that Anschutz is still damn pretty.

G&E vs Bleiker - it's like Krug vs Bollinger (What's €4k between friends? )

What I did like about the Bleiker though was that it lets you take out the 50m action and drop in the 300m action into the same stock. Since you're almost shooting the same stuff (and are in prone), it lets you do position training using cheaper .22lr ammo and then switch up to the 6mmBR to do things like wind training.

Yeah, but that's a standard rifle. Dry-fire 3P with a SCATT is going to be much more useful than mostly .22 live firing with that weight of a trigger, so I'm happy enough. Besides, I'll quite possibly be going with G&E for a smallbore stock, so can drop the action in that for the prone only and suffer the trigger.
