    Yeah but you didn't really answer the question though

    How is it not a tactical trainer?

    -Fully adjustable precision rifle style stock
    -Full length heavy barrel
    -Picatinny scope mount
    -Oversize bolt knob
    -Ability to mount bipods

    Seems to me that it checks all the boxes for a rimfire stand-in for a full size tactical bolt rifle.

    A rifle doesn't need to be covered in quad pic rails and cerakoted tan and green to be a tactical trainer. "Tactical" is not an aesthetic.

    These were originally brought to market by us, not Anschutz. We took the really adaptable Biathlon Sprint stock and mounted a 64 MP R barreld action, added a picatinny rail, extended mag release
    and changed the buttplate.

    Sold them as tactical trainers for over 2 years. We just purchased the remaining stocks that Anschutz had for these and had them put a package together with the Match 1903 repeater.

    Like Lumberjack_Kerouac said,

    -Fully adjustable precision rifle style stock
    -Full length heavy barrel
    -Picatinny scope mount
    -Oversize bolt knob
    -Ability to mount bipod

    This is not a 3 position rifle, or a hunting rifle (although I guess you could use it for that) but one designed primaraly to shoot from a bi-pod in the prone position.

    I shoot a PGW Coyote in .308 and can tell you when I go to our local indoor range to shoot rimfire, I can comfortbly slide in behind this and feel right at home.

    A very accurate rifle out of the box with one amazing trigger.

    Come on now, this is clearly an assault rifle, look at the extra mags at the ready and collapsible butt stock - Just ask Bill...
