About as hard as it is for Taurus to make a 9mm!! In the precision rifle world the “action and barrel” and how the “slapping it all together” happens is what matters the most. People pay thousands for those details to be spot on.
The last couple of sentences expressed my thoughts. And @Wise_A is doing the same math as me. $1500-1800 can buy a lot of proven rifle and is getting out of the budget category. If the Waypoint shoots with the proven names and ends up comparing favorably with the competition then I have no problem saying it’s worth it. I was just wondering why everyone was so excited since I didn’t know anything about it and SA isn’t a usual player in the long gun game.
For example, Savage has a long history of good shooting rifles that have been well vetted. As well as Remington. But no way am I paying $1500-2000 for one of them in a similar build.
Though it doesn’t sound like it, I’m withholding judgment. If it turns out to be a solid player and a value at its price point, bad ass!!
