    What if you SBR it?

    Same gas port dimension for all barrel lengths, except in magnum calibers.

    Moving thread to Precision Rifle - Bolt Gun subforum.

    I will be interested to read about the barrel's they will be using.

    Very interesting! I just blew my wad on a DD5v2. I wonder if it's going to have a chassis on it? They need to come out swinging with a nice chassis and folder option, maybe make two versions, one light packable one and then a gamer/target one.

    Do we know for sure if they are making the entire barreled action, or just a chassis? I always welcome another chassis to the market as long as it's lighter weight than most and innovative.

    I think they will likely make a good bolt action rifle that may be priced high enough to price its self out of the market.

    I don’t think so. My money is that they will have the RPR in their sights. Maybe more expensive than a Remington 5R but without Remington baggage, and less expensive than having a smith rebarrel a Tikka action and putting it in a chassis.

    I’d bet $50 that they will be using their own hammer forged barrels just as Sako does on their TRG series.

    With guns moving slower, I’m sure they’re trying to keep the thing busy.

    I hope that you are right.

    Pretty much what I was thinking. If they use a CHF barrel, and keep the price within range of an RPR as you mentioned, it should be quite interesting.
