Interesting. It’s like a sig cross had an affair with a slutty blaser straight pull rifle.
Wonder how it will shoot.
I love innovation but I think their butt stock needed to be more like the Cross or Fix. Or let you use ar15 butt stocks easily.

Or more effective suppression.There's a slight possibility that some people don't like the "ka-chunk, boing" that an AR makes.
Maybe that's just me.
I know, there are more silent springs available.
That was a bit surprising to me as well.Why AR triggers? That seems like adding so much unnecessary lock time.
With a charging handle in the most ergonomic location for a quick follow up.Adjustable gas block. Turn off. Straight pull rifle. You’re welcome
Looks to cycle a lot easier than the Savage straight pull does as well.
If it doesn’t shoot half moa or better I see no point to a straight pull (or any bolt gun for that matter) when you can buy an AR these days that shoots faster, has cheap available parts, comes in many calibers, and shoots 3/4-1” fairly easily
no bolt gun has a manipulation even remotely as fast as an AR for a follow up shot. If a fast follow up shot is needed (running animal etc) you’d be much better off with an auto loader to begin with. The niche of a straight pull is as folks stated. Using subs with no action noise to be as quiet as possible. However a 16” barrel just adds weight and length to this use case.
From what I’ve seen straight pulls are popular in Europe where they can’t get ARs for hunting boat and the like. It’s as good as they can get. Luckily in the US we can get pretty much anything.

No, just watched the video that was put up here. Guy really had to muscle it.Have you shot the Savage?

Savage Impulse Elite Precision
So according to ShotShow or Shot Show 2020 , Savage is making their straight-pull Impulse action with a 30" barrel, AICS magazine in an MDT ACC chassis. The available calibers will be 6mm Creedmoor, 6.5 Creedmoor, 6.5 PRC 308, 300 Win Mag, 300 PRC, and...338 Lapua. I have their Impulse...www.snipershide.com
Almost every person that has tried to cycle the bolt for the first time forgets that it's straight pull and try to lift up on the bolt while pulling it, causing it to bind. They have no issues once they get used to just pulling it straight back.

Clearly you care enough to respond to me not once but twice
Ah, you have to turn the bolt handle to the rear,
It uses something similar to an AR-10 bolt since it uses normal AR-10 barrel/extension. Thats probably why.AR-10 magazines? Whose pattern? SR-25? Armalite?
Dumb. Should have stuck to AICS magazines. Since they designed the bolt from the ground up, that should have been a no brainer.
Try running a suppressed AR under 0 degrees F. I dont care how much or little of what lube you use. It ain't long before you have a mess.If it doesn’t shoot half moa or better I see no point to a straight pull (or any bolt gun for that matter) when you can buy an AR these days that shoots faster, has cheap available parts, comes in many calibers, and shoots 3/4-1” fairly easily
I live in east texas so this comment is literally irrelevant to me.Try running a suppressed AR under 0 degrees F. I dont care how much or little of what lube you use. It ain't long before you have a mess.
Yeah, I guess, but I probably would have gravitated to a Rem700 trigger instead.It's the easy button instead of trying to engineer something for the purpose

Ok, well... the point is that they didn't make this rifle just for you, So while you dont see a point, others do.I live in east texas so this comment is literally irrelevant to me.
How about a straight pull bullpup??
How good is the 22lr barrel and how does the action cycle with the 22lr set up?My comment is folks should stop being poors and just get a Blaser R8 and configure it how they like it and be done with it.
Then you can shoot from .22LR on up to the big African game hunting class cartridges or things like .338LM or .300NM etc.

We have one gun store locally that only deals with blaser (high end African hunts etc…). I’ve handled a few models but never shot one. Having all the barrels and what not sounds cool but how effective is it and how does it cycle.
Also doesn’t the newest model have the trigger group and magazine together?
Well, that is partly correct.no bolt gun has a manipulation even remotely as fast as an AR for a follow up shot. If a fast follow up shot is needed (running animal etc) you’d be much better off with an auto loader to begin with.
How does it lock up, I wonder? I was expecting to see some retractable ball bearings, a collet, or something....
Nope. AICS is the defacto standard.Yiu spelled AW wrong
Not sure what you mean by that but I assume you're talking about SR25 mags. All my rifles use AICS mags, so that's what I want in the next one I buy.But why the pmag/lancer etc hate ?

Right........
And that was NOT a straight pull rifle
Sure and Jerry Miculek is a good example of how a revolver shoots faster than a full auto AK. You missed the point my friend
