"Long Action" Semi-Auto Rifles - What's the consensus?

I really like my NEMO Omen and it will join me on an elk hunt this fall/winter. It's doesn't join me on my typical backcountry hunts here in Idaho, where weight is the primary motivation. It's an oz is lbs issue when packing it in. It's still well under 16lbs configured, but I'm not humping it 30 miles, at altitude, in the frank church. It's accurate, soft shooting for it's caliber and has been 100% reliable.

Why...because I can, and frankly got tired of the fuds telling me I shouldn't be using a weapon like that to hunt with. Fast forward and I've been in the field taking game with an FN SCAR 17S, and AR chambered in 6 ARC and now the Omen.

Side note for OP. A good number of NEMO Omen rifles enter the foreign military sales arena, go overseas to other friendly nations, to dissuade/control bad guy populations. They are no doubt better suited for that and competition where timed follow up shots matter. They are a bit niche in the US buyers market due to cost but scratch an itch for a long action shooter that has to jump to a .50BMG if they want to get into a reliable well supported platform. As others have stated, many rifles on the market targeting hunters but not many in large frame AR community that have been selling, supported and still going strong years later.

Trump is back…the “Now What” thread

Trump needs to ignore these judges, it's all bullshit window shopping by leftists, find the most libtarded district they can and file a lawsuit. Keep deporting illegal alien gangbangers, let Elon do his thing, don't re-hire anybody unless it's actually necessary. Highlight the fact that Democrats want to keep illegal alien gang members in the country and Republicans want to keep them out, highlight that Democrats want to continue fraud in USAID etc and Republicans want to clean it up. Just keep hammering away at those points.

Gun Owners Losing Patience with Pam Bondi and Kash Patel Over 2A Rights


Gun owners across the country are growing increasingly frustrated with Attorney General Pam Bondi and interim ATF head Kash Patel as delays and failures to act on key Second Amendment issues continue to mount. Various prominent figures in the gun rights community have called out the inaction, highlighting missed deadlines, non-compliance with court orders, and ongoing bureaucratic barriers preventing gun rights from being fully restored.

I like that people are holding them accountable. Pro-2A stuff should be easy money for Bondi and Patel.
