Anyone tried this Brownell's bolt handle?

Has anyone tried this bolt handle from Brownell's?

Savage Tactical Bolt Handle

General impressions? Quality? Anything better for about the same money?

Will be going on a .223 FCP-K.

Thanks,

they are made by stockade, I believe. Stockade also makes a 3/4" model (the one above is a 5/8), that offers a little more surface area to grip. Check out stockade's site, they used to be cheaper there (around $39 if I remember).

SSS bolt handles are similar, I have them on my rifles because I picked them up cheap. check tacticalworks, same handle as the sss, but you can order them online and not have to wait on sss. here: https://www.tacticalworks.com/Savage-Tactical-Bolt-Handle-Round-Back-SSSTBRB.html

that said, I'm ordering a 3/4" model from stockade for an older long action 223 I am converting to a 7.62x39. Just wanting something a little different on this build, because the 7.62x39 in a bolt is a little different. Stockade's recoil lug are also nice if you need one.

Have it, works much better than the standard knob, though dosen't work any better than the savage big ass "tactical" knob, unless you got a thing for asthetics

OK thanks,

I like the TW version better. Got on the wait/notify list. Black is sold out.
