Push-feed vs CRF

[track]

Laughing! Funny cause my CRF model 70's are more than likely lighter than most of your push feeds.

LOL!!! Love how the grain flows on your rifle. Leather and Tupperware clashes...........try placing the firearm on a synthetic scabbard.

My CRF M70 is 7lbs. Light enough. Sub MOA too.
I'd take a fraction more weight for 100% reliability due to superior and simpler design.

I'll take a fraction more weight for 100% reliability due to superior and simpler design. Sub 1/4 MOA.

Superior and simpler than a Mauser based bolt?

This thread fails to accomplish anything other than competing for the last word from a bunch of more senior members of CGN whose exploits and experience I usually enjoy reading.

How far is the furthest shot you have made on game in the field?

The layout in that stock is perfect for a hunting rifle.

Considering most of Track's PF Rifles are magnum cartridges and are'nt made of Tupperware,I might have to agree with you

So then it has nothing to do with CRF vs PF.

Here is a CRF Magnum that weighs the same. You'll notice the lack of trucks in the picture.

Please tell me you did not just measure a 2-shot group with a caliper and call your rifle 1/4 MOA. That is embarrassing, not to mention irrelevant to this thread.





Edit: Fu$k me, I just took the bait.

That's a great photo!
Nice bull.

Well at least unlike your bull elk,you didnt have to photo shop extra tines on the bull moose.....you will also notice a lack Trucks in my picture from last fall,when I shot a mountain Goat on the summit of syncline mountain,useing a sako rifle/zeiss scope that weighed 10.5 pounds.....although horses would have been nice to have

Was it one of these bulls?



Maybe this one? My memory is short.

^^^ I dont see him .....Eitherway the Euromounts look great....Nice looking bulls.

that one it s not counting at all : it s a left handed action and we all know they shoot better ....

It is most relevant to the thread. Push feeds are more accurate, faster, lighter, etc. than CRF..........hence manufactured firearms. Quality PF out number CRF by a multitude. The said target is not 1/4 moa, it's "sub" 1/4 moa, three shots. Here is another target from the same firearm and load, but from a different shooter. I was load developing and finally found what I was looking for, and the Ogive is just kissing the lands. It's isn't the fastest load but accurate enough to thread the needle when needed.

Accuracy is nice to have, but of all the factors that make up a quality hunting rifle, accuracy is the least important.

Oh boy, now you've done it. Didn't you know that all accomplished interweb hunters shoot 1/4" 3 shot groups into their quarry?

 

[leojlafrog]

Your factory, unmodified, push feed missed the bullseye......three times!

 

[Cleftwynd]

Accuracy is important, just not everything.

One reason you don't see FN Supreme type actions much anymore is cost, CRF are more costly to build compared to PF, if $$ wasn't part of the equation, there wouldn't be ANY high end PF's at all.

To this day, the K98 action is still considered the best, most reliable, safest, and yes, most consistent and accurate action ever built. Blaser has even stated themselves that the only reson for not making an action like the FN Supreme again is cost.

I am afraid the race to the bottom has put the final nail in the coffin for true quality rifles.


Side note: It sure is nice to see Mauser going home, of sorts, and also that custom rifles from England will once again be supplied by Mauser, of Bavaria, owned by Blaser along with JP Sauer.

If CRF is so expensive to manufacture, why is a Ruger Mk2, Winchester model 70 and CZ 550 less expensive than a Styer Mannlicher and firearms as such? BTW, thank you for being non personal, critical or rude like some other posters. Nice to communicate with maturity for a change.
