advertisment.

Works for me....it's utube so generally there is an add first....after a few seconds should be able to skip it.

Sorry wasn't clear enough. The "review" is an advertisement, its informative and all but keep that in mind. Does not mean the channel is bad (though I have seen some practices there that are more than questionable), watch it occasionally.

Ah yes....most reviews are.

I like the idea and there's some great features I just wish the stock wasn't so ugly
It would also be encouraging to see barrel kits supported by nz suppliers, doesn't appear to be anyone in nz carrying the switch barrel kits.

My Father brough one last year and I have used it a bit and it is great. Shoots well off the shoulder but you have to get used to the safety which is minor. Easy to change the trigger pulls as well.

Essentially a cheaper blaser I think. Agree with @dannyb in saying it would be nice to see barrel kits, would love a 7PRC or Rem Mag kit for it.

A 308 and some sort of magnum would see you pretty well sussed I reckon and some sort of aftermarket stock potentially lighter weight than factory would be awesome

Its pretty cool, doubt it won't be cheap, if it gets here, stainless is great here chrome moly, not so much

Well clearly guys around here can't look after it....every, yep every single CM rifle I see has corrosion somewhere, the best idea is not to put a bore scope down one.....doesn't mean they don't shoot...

We are so close to the sea & hunting in the rain, use tents etc that the Euro style rifles can be a little out of their depth unless guys get a little OCD with their maintenance programme

There are some 30-06, 300WM, plenty of 308 & 6.5CM in stock

Just buy the Blaser.
