    Just curious if anyone has had a chance to lay hands on one yet.
    I like the idea and the direction they went but seems like they may have priced themselves out of the market for being an unknown.
    Have seen two models with two different calibers/barrels per rifle ( 6.5 creedmoor with 300 WM and the other 308win and 338 LM)

    Those were my initial thoughts as well but the details on the rifle seem clouded and vague from what I've found so far.
    It appears to be a Stiller action but the case head differences would lean more towards a Shilen with interchangeable bolt heads but just a guess.
    The other thing that caught my attention and haven't seen substantiated is the less than half MOA accuracy claim with match grade ammo.
    That's a pretty bold claim and no mention of who makes the barrels that I've seen so far.

    For $3k you could get an Origin, KRG Bravo, TT Primary, and Proof Prefit. Just saying, with how easy, cheap, and good a custom rifle can be these days, there just really isnt a reason to pay more than $2k for a factory rifle. Oh hey look at that, a Tikka Tac A1 for right around $2k :)

    Like I originally said I feel like they priced themselves out of the game.
    If they were to fill in some of the gray area with some great names and specs it might have a little more sway.
    Like Krieger 4 groove barrels, a proven action with good credentials and a company highly regarded with clambering those barrels and not just mass produced by no name included.

    Well, you've got an 1100 dollar action, an 1100 dollar chassis, a 165 dollar trigger. It APPEARS, but not certain, two barrels, so it must have the other bolt head, another 125 bucks or so.
    They have the stats on both barrels listed, but it only comes with one mag.
    IF it comes with two barrels, threaded, chambered etc... figure 600 for each barrel, total 1200 there.
    You're talking 3690 in components.
    That's a hefty markup, especially for something you could screw together for yourself.
