Coup De Grâce, New Action from American Rifle Company, $899 WOW!

We will be offering the Lapua (.588) bolt face. We just wanted to clarify a few things on how it will function.

Please be advised that cartridges with 14.93mm (.588 in) diameter case heads, i.e. 338 Lapua Mag, will not be engaged by the extractor as they are released by the magazine feed lips. Instead, they will feed in a manner like that exhibited by push feed actions, especially if used with the fixed bolt handle.

We strongly recommend choosing the pivoting handle for use with the 588 bolt head for two reasons. First, large cartridges are more likely to get stuck in the chamber than small cartridges. And secondly, the cartridges will be extractable without the need to rotate the bolt closed.

At this time, we are not sure if the 588 bolt head and extractor can be designed to function exactly like the smaller variants. We will continue to explore this.
Thank you for your response. I will probably order the action and sit on it until the lapua bolt face is released.
Thanks @Jon_ARC
