Wow. That's a really nice rifle.

[frigginchi]

Bolt Action = green light

[JBird33]

Unless it is a "named" rifle I don't see why not. Should be legal.

[Lateralus]

remember kiddies, SB23 applies to semi automatic centerfire rifles. Bolt action is good to go.

I would love that rifle if it was in .308
.338 Lapua is a bit too expensive for my taste.

[Toolbox X]

Why does it seem like 1 person per day asks if bolt action rifles are legal in CA?

Do we really need to put a sticky on the top of this forum that says, "Before you ask, YES, bolt action rifles are legal in CA" ?

[Bowser]

Looks good.

I tracked down some pricing for this sweet rifle.

Shot Show Prices will be (Tentative):
SRS 338LM $3585 (26" fluted barrel includes DTA muzzlebrake)
SRS 300WIN $3450 (26" fluted barrel no brake)
SRS 243WIN $3275 (24" fluted barrel)
SRS 308WIN $3275 (22" fluted barrel)

Conversion kits (includes bolt, barrel, barrel ext, and magazine)
338LM $1480 (includes DTA Muzzlebrake)
300WIN $1265
243WIN $1205 (if you already have a 308win bolt you can deduct $300)
308WIN $1155

Ouch.

This rifle is a lot like the DSR 1 (http://dsr-nr-1.de/en/dsr1.php).

It is designed to quickly convert to 300WM and .308, which is excellent.

Damn - them's custom-build prices...

[RRangel]

That's the rifle I dream about.

Do they have layaway?

:D

[J_Rock]

1 min caliber change :eek:

[Paradiddle]

Couldn't they find an employee without a frayed band aid on his finger to hold the rifle for the photo shoot!

[Sniper3142]

It is a very nice design. The price is comparable to other high quality rifles with similar features.

We are awaiting more extensive accuracy and durability testing.

[tankerman]

Why would you want or need a quad-rail on a bolt action? I personally do not care for the appearance........at all.

wow... me wanty... ;)

[J_Rock]

Top rails yes
bottom to mount a bi-pod yes
side rails not so much

better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it

[halifax]

I'll bet that one really warms your cheek esp if you double-charge a handload ;)

[cobra198]

Daaang, that is one evil looking bolt action rifle.... not quite as evil as the price tag though!

[MadMax]

^^^seriosly that is expensive as hell!!

But it is pretty pimpy though

[rksimple]

Its expensive if you're used to buying normal, off the shelf rifles. Compare it to a custom, a sako, or an AI, and its not so bad. I love the barrel change feature.

[J_Rock]

Seriously an AI .338 will cost about $6k. Compared to that this rifle isnt that expensive.

[Got Stuff?]

Are 50BMG bolt actions legal in CA?

Stupid California.

[crowbar]

Maybe not evil looking enough, but wicked in 200 or 300 yard rapids or slow prone at 600 yards: http://www.6mmbr.com/gunweek074.html

And it is made in CA

its pink...

[crowbar]

its pink...

It's the inside that counts...

[Fobjoe]

What about the 510 DTC Bohica uppers I've seen. I think those are pretty "evil"...still not sure about how well they shoot. It just seemed like a good idea.

http://www.bohicaarms.com/cmsimages/Picture_1.jpg

[RRangel]

What's with that potato grater butt? That hurts just looking at it.

[Fobjoe]

I would hope that it was just some sort of ugly recoil pad....

[Spearo]

Very nice rifles... too bad I'll never be able to afford one.

[m24armorer]

I'm going to order a .338 tomorrow, Just because I can't get a DSR-1 here.

[thermactor]

how about .416 barrett?

[anhnguyen310]

what I want to know is.............. do they make it for us south paw guys?!?!?! If so sign me up for one.

[J_Rock]

For $4750 you can get a .338 LM with a .308 a conversion. Thats like having 2 rifles for less than price of a Sako or AICS .338

I better start saving now

[j1133s]

Looks inconvient to use.
I'm sitting here pretending to be in firing position and moving my hands/arms to cycle the bolt... 2 things: 1. I don't know if I can move my right hand back far enough; 2. I can't see if the shell is ejected and a new one is properly loaded.

this isnt the first bullpup bolt action you know. to get the shorter OAL you need to sacrifice some ergonomics.

[tiger222]

I'm a sucker for anything bullpup.... not sure why, just am.

Ok the savings begins, and I told my better half that I was done for a while :)

guess not!!

It warms my heart to finally see some goverment expenditure that gives good bang for the buck. It looks/shoots like a acurate rifle.

Nice find!

[sigguy552]

These guys asked to borrow my DSR for T&E(COPY) so I know for a fact this was copied from the DSR. At least they have the right scope sitting on it and not some POS USO. I only hope they made it lighter as my DSR was a boat anchor and it was in 308. I can't imagine what it would have weighed in 338.
