Features:
Barrel-Free floating, glass bedded at the recoil lug to maintain the proper spacing around the barrel and provide consistent accuracy. Recessed muzzle.
Bolt-60 degree throw. Utilizes a non-rotating bolt sleeve that runs the entire length of the bolt. When unlocked, three guide ribs on the bolt sleeve align with the three locking lugs to allow the bolt to slide smoothly. When locked, these three lugs provide massive bolt strength. The A-Bolt feeds very smoothly because of its unique, patented cartridge depressor. This cartridge depressor stays in position, independent of the bolt rotation, as the bolt slides gently over the cartridges in the magazine. The bolt face is recessed, completely surrounding the cartridge base.
Magazine-Hinged floor plate with detachable box magazine to make it simple and fast to load with a spare loaded magazine.
Recoil Pad-Standard on all models.
Safety-Top-tang, thumb-operated safety can be actuated or released with the thumb without changing from a shooting grip.
Sights- A-Bolt models supplied without open sights, receiver drilled and tapped for installation of scope mounts
Sling Swivels-Michaels post-type swivel studs, swivels not included.
Trigger-Chrome-plated trigger sear for cleaner, crisper trigger pull. Screw adjustable. Pre-set at approximately 4 pounds.

Based on the 308 Winchester case necked down, the 7mm-08 Remington was an obvious and popular wildcat cartridge before its adoption by Remington in 1980. Performance is very similar to the 7x57 Mauser, except that the 7mm-08's 2.0457-inch case can be housed in short actions, and because it's a recent cartridge chambered to modern rifles 7mm-08 ammunition is loaded to higher pressure. The 7mm-08 has become extremely popular; like the 7x57 it is an ideal whitetail cartridge, and an excellent choice for hunters who want accuracy, efficiency, and versatility without a lot of recoil and muzzle blast. Both rifles and ammunition are offered by most manufacturers, with the most common load featuring a 140-grain bullet at 2860 fps. With this load and good bullets the 7mm-08 is adequate for elk, but is at its best for deer-sized game. — Craig Boddington
