Nice and light and I can wear it on my chest for pushing through tight Manuka/Kanuka in Sika country

Feeds flawlessly and .5 moa capable with 150-178g projectiles

$2600 new from memory


The bolt feels weird if cycling the action when empty as the mag follower touches it.

Once loaded it’s smooth and silent


Won’t ever be selling mine

Seriously light with a VX3 4.5-14-40 on it

Your welcome to see how it points and feels on the shoulder

If you shoot with a TSX or one of it’s tipped variants eventually you will encounter a situation where that projectile causes a lost deer.

I like what you say about the Forbes and I agree, very light and usable in the hills.

Interesting enough not a lot seem to share your view on these TSX type of pills. I do. I lost a deer using GMX and have had two run a long way using the TSX. Both dead but so I shouldn’t complain but I don’t use them now.
