    New Sig CROSS

    I find $1499 - "street" discount very tempting. I just hope it's not some scheme where they sell the rifle for a couple hundred bucks under expectations but the Sig Fury ammo costs $5 / round.

    New Sig CROSS

    That would make sense except with every interview the price for this gun seems to go down by $100. Here's a sig rep holding the camo version and saying it's going to be MSRP $1499. I hope they make up their mind. Then again, if they do a few more interviews maybe the street price will hit...

    New Sig CROSS

    There seems to be some confusion around the price. One video from earlier said $1600 was the minimum advertising price whole $1800 was MSRP. Other videos said different.

    Guns America also said a 6.5 version of the Fury is coming.

    New Sig CROSS

    That's a prototype though. It sounds like there's nothing stopping it from very very accurate, but I'm not sure production rifles would consistently live up to half moa. The barrels could be made differently, for example.

    New Sig CROSS

    The ammo weight is supposed to be be about 20% lower (I assume vs 5.56 because of the solicitation) because of the steel base. On the machine gun variant the recoil is handled by a reciprocating barrel. Not sure about the carbine. Info about the Sig Sauer bid starts at about 5:45 in the video...

    New Sig CROSS

    The research investment is amortized over the potentially very large army contract. Wouldn't be surprising if they did things that would not normally be affordable to a small manufacturer making a small production run. Regarding the custom actions, would the control round feed bolt heads have...

    Any thoughts about the barrel life? Edit: ok just read the discussion above regarding coatings and heat.

    New Sig CROSS

    There's now a detailed write-up about the hybrid cartridge in Guns America: https://www.gunsamerica.com/digest/277-sig-fury-demystified/ 80,000 PSI vs. 60,000 PSI for 308 Final rounds will achieve >3000 ft/s for 140 gr out of 16 in barrel Will work with existing Remington 700 actions but not...

    New Sig CROSS

    From the video the .277 Fury is pushing a 143 gr bullet at 2900 to 2950 fps out of a 16 in barrel. That's about 2750 ft*lb of energy. Pressures are contained by the new hybrid case.... Could the steel base on the case become a point of failure and safety risk if not made correctly? From...

    Proof also does pre-fit barrels for Tikka now. You can get both steel and carbon versions from Stocky's.

    Proof Research Elevation

    Yeah, plus the stock is a CF proof stock that retails for $850. Also there's the cost of the BDL. ~$150. Spend another $350 on a KRG Bravo and you have effectively a nice precision rifle and a nice hunting rifle.

    Proof Research Elevation

    So these things are now selling for $2316 at some of the online retailers. That seems.... remarkably cheap for what it is. It's like paying for the barreled action and trigger, and getting the stock for free. What do you guys think...
