The Manners stocks have arrived.
After nearly a year in development, we are pleased to announce the first batch of Manners T6 stocks are now installed on a series of our rifles and ready to sell.
These feature an adjustable butt-plate for length and a molded-in GAP Camo color. Please take a look at the details on our "Sporting Rifles" tab on the website.
For the first 200 units, we will be selling complete rifles only. After these are sold, we will look into selling just the stocks alone, and the price will be established at that point.

Greetings everyone,
We just finished up a new rimfire sporting rifle in the Custom Shop; the 1416 Seneca Falls BR Sporter. Named for an area where rimfire benchrest sporter competition is quite popular, we built this rifle to not only meet the weight requirements of the class but to also offer a higher level of accuracy without breaking the $2000 threshold.
Starting with a 1416 HB Beavertail rifle fitted with a 5098 trigger, we completely disassemble the rifle and rebuild from the ground up. The first modification is the removal of the factory barrel and then cut from the chamber to 17 inches. Then we cut a tighter chamber from the factory and carefully re-install the barrel into the action.
From there the barreled action is epoxy bedded into the receiver with a fully floated barrel. After bedding, the rifle is rebuilt, the trigger tuned with a light weight spring, the sear re-greased with NECO moly paste, and new hex-keyed action screws are cut to length. The bolt is tested for ejection and the internals polished and refitted.
We then polish the wood beavertail stock and buff out a hard wax coating so it rides smoothly in the bags.
When complete, the rifle weighs approximately 6 lbs, 2 oz including the magazine installed. Like all Custom Shop rifles, we test out a few different lots of RWS ammunition with the rifle to see which lot shoots the best. Any ammunition ordered with the rifle is 20% off retail.
The MSRP on this rifle is $1650.00
The first one built has already been sold, but we will be looking to start a few more this next month. If you are interested in one of these, let us know and we will get your name on the list. Due to all the metal work on this project, there is a 4 week delay on production.

1727 Elite with Axiom Suppressor
November 1st, 2015
Sometimes we get a chance to work on special projects and look in new directions.
Late after work, usually after some coffee and a few bright ideas, unusual and fun rifles will come together.
This model has everyone buzzing around the office and excited to test it out in the field.
This platform is the new 1727 F in .22lr with a factory threaded 18" heavy barrel and installed into the 1827's Biathlon stock. We have figured out the fit into the stock, and when the rifle is shouldered it is amazingly well balanced and points instinctively. The "wow" factor is very high with this. From the prone position, it is awesome.
We can build this for you..! Keep that VISA handy.

Greetings all,
Just a quick update on the 1727's chambered in .22lr ( 1727 F - 22 ). We have shipped out the first few rifles to our dealers to fill some standing orders, with quite a few more to send out.
These are the heavy barrel versions, and we will update this webpage with the details of weight and barrel length soon. The factory in Germany is working on the Sporter configuration now, and we expect to have these some time by mid-summer.
In total we will have four versions; a 23" heavy barrel, an 18" heavy barrel threaded 1/2" x 28 tpi, and then the same setups but with a Sporter barrel nearly identical to the 1712 barrel. The heavy barrel version has an almost identical barrel as the 1710 HB series.
Nearly every one of these rifles have excellent stocks, and they all come standard with a cleaning rod guide. Currently at the warehouse we are fitting some of the stocks and preparing orders, and a small batch of 10 have been sent to the Custom Shop for epoxy bedding and other minor upgrades. Of course these will have amazing stocks for sure.
Much of the delay has been with getting the stocks installed, additional QC of each rifle, some detailed shooting with RWS R-50 ammunition, and preparing our dealer orders.
Thanks for your patience.

1712 G with 18" Threaded Barrel with Tactical Solutions Axiom Suppressor.
October 12th, 2015
With the fall season now upon us, we are pleased to offer the new 1712 18" G model, featuring a 1/2" x 28 tpi threaded barrel for USA built suppressors.
Based on the world-famous 1712 silhouette rifle, considered by most to be the gold-standard for NRA Smallbore Silhouette, this new offering is nearly an identical copy with a 18" barrel threaded and counter-bored for suppressor use.
Many of our customers actually use their silhouette rifles for squirrel hunting, and this gave us the idea to offer a threaded version to not only save on weight but to also allow the use of a suppressor.
During the extensive testing in the field this past summer, we fitted all test models with the Axiom suppressor manufactured by our good friends at Tactical Solutions, and the results were amazing.
A number of prototype rifles from the factory were being put though the paces in the ground squirrel fields across the western United States, and not only did our new 1712 G perform superbly, we were equally impressed with the performance of the Axiom suppressors. Not only were they impressively quiet with the RWS Subsonic HP ammunition, they were pin-point accurate.
The new 1712 G rifle fitted with an Axiom suppressor and zeroed in with RWS Subsonic HP made for a deadly and effective combination.
While we only have a limited number of these rifles on hand, there are more in this next shipment which is on the way. For the ultimate light-weight squirrel rifle, look no further.
Order one of these rifles from a dealer today...!

A mountain of brass from 54.30 testing...
October 5th, 2015
Greetings Everyone..!
With the upcoming fall season, we are excited to receive our next shipment of products which are due in around mid-November.
This shipment will contain some of the new 54.30's and 9015 Air Rifles. Along with these two rifles, we will be offering additional new products from the factory. Once the shipment arrives, we will announce these in more detail.
There has been a lot of interest in the new 1727 chambered in .22lr, and we have some of these in our inventory. Looking at what was possible for this batch, we first received some of the heavy barrel versions which feature a 23" barrel of the same contour as the 1710 D HB, as well as a few of these same barrels cut short to 18" and threaded for silencers.
A lighter weight Sporter version is schedule for next spring, and we are waiting the final details on that particular model. As we take detailed measurements and photos, we will add these rifles to the website so everyone can read about the specifications.
A small number of these are headed to the Custom Shop now and will be offered shortly.
We appreciate everyone's patience and please check back soon for updates.

The new 54.30 Match rifle.
April 17th, 2015
The new 54.30 Match rifle has been announced. We are excited to see these arrive in the states later this year. We will be filling the orders to our Premium Dealers first, and we expect to completely sell out of these immediately for the first few production runs.
Below is the press release from Germany:
Greetings,
This past March at the IWA fair in Nuremberg, Germany, we debuted our newly designed Smallbore Match Rifle; the 54.30.
Today we would like to present to you some detailed information about this newly designed match rifle.
Our new Match 54.30 is a considerable evolution of the legendary ANSCHÜTZ Match 54 barreled action.
The new smallbore Match 54.30 action distinguishes itself by following items:
- Basis for the new rifle is the well known and reliable ANSCHÜTZ Match 54 action.
- The loading port was moved 30mm rewards and was reduced in size by 18%.
- These changes increases the stiffness of the receiver.
- The closer location of the loading port allows for less movement when in position and an overall improvment in shooter ergonomics.
- To accomodate the closer location of the loading port, the bolt and the firing pin were reduced in length by 30mm.
- The weight of the firing pin was also reduced, thus resulting in velocity increase of the firing pin and a shorter lock-time.
- The overall accuracy has been improved by a newly designed ANSCHÜTZ Match chamber.
- Unlike match actions in the past, the new Match 54.30 features a threaded receiver and barrel connection. This change removes stresses in the chamber area and further increases accuracy.
- The new Match 54.30 can be installed into all available stocks which fit with the ANSCHÜTZ round match actions such as the 1907 or 1913.
- Like other ANSCHÜTZ products, the Match 54.30 features a maintenance - friendly and long lasting overall construction.
- Very competitive pricing.
Additional details about the ANSCHÜTZ Match 54.30 are included in the enclosed attachement.
If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact us through our website or dealer network.
Match 54.30 "We Are Rimfire."

Cleaning Rod Guides for the 1727 F, 1827 F, and F-27 A
Greetings all!
We are excited to announce the shipment of cleaning rod guides for the Fortner series of actions is arriving soon.
They will work for both the .17 HMR and the .22lr bores. Aluminum construction..!
Please take a look at the PDF file with all the details.
Retail Price: $50.00 + shipping.
We are expecting to have these within a week, and you can contact our sales staff to pre-order your guide. The first shipment will be 50 units and we expect to sell out fast.
There is a design on hold for a .17" caliber specific model, but the time frame for these is unknown. We have many more Fortner actions in .22lr than .17 HMR, so until we catch up with the .22lr version, there will be a delay on the 17's - if we ever offer them. I have tried this on my 17 HMR, and it worked pretty well. It works much better than a regular 54 action rod guide and keeps things more in alignment.
Thanks.
