    Unrelated but have you seen the VEPR 6.5 Grendel ?

    Looks cool. I wish I had a use for a bolt gun.

    This one is on my list. Actually replaced a 700 chassis gun I was going to build eventually.

    I'm interested in getting to lay hands on one eventually

    Here is an article about the gun by recoil that goes into it a bit: http://www.recoilweb.com/we-knew-q-l...ix-122186.html

    I've been entertaining getting my first bolt gun, and was originally contemplating a Tikka of some sort, but might just wait for this.

    That's interesting. I'd be interested in longer .308 barrels, but they will probably come in time.

    Thanks! I think they should get extra credit for watching the Family Guy Star Wars spoof. Lol!

    That is quite nice--I could easily see a .260 Rem version sitting in my safe in the near future...

    As a long time bolt action shooter, I would pass on this rifle due to its awkwardness. Watching the shooter operate the rifle shows the bolt lift is stiff and its operation is anything but smooth. A pistol grip only exacerbates the problem. Bolt travel limits the cheek piece, cheek weld and limits LOP and eye relief options. Interesting concept, but it needs further refinement

    The longer article mentions that they're still working out the feed ramp geometry, which could be some of the roughness we're seeing.
