I currently own the following Schultz's:
Model 68Dl in .22-250 Rem
Model 60 in 7x61 S&H
Model 68Dl in 7mm Rem Mag
Model 65Dl in .264 Win Mag
Model 65Dl in .308 Norma Mag
Model 65Dl in .338 Win Mag
Model 65Dl in .358 Norma MagModel 54J in .378 Weatherby Mag with the Weatherby diamond in the pistol-grip cap ( one of approx 330 rifles made by Schultz and sold by Weatherby in their new .378 Mag caliber before they came out with their own MkV action)
All of these rifles will shoot sub 1" with Norma Factory ammo and most will shoot close to 1/2" with good handloads. The perceived weakness of the rear locking lug system is more myth than fact. Look at the small ejection port and the thickness of the receiver side walls. Benchrest shooters used to sleeve actions to get stiff receivers like the Schultz has. Do you really think that massive diameter bolt is going to compress or somehow flex in that stiff receiver at any sane pressure???
I have shot some very hot handloads out of my rifles with no shortened case life or excess case stretching. Schultz barrels have a long and excellent reputation with many benchrest shooters and with many custom rifle makers (including at least one Austrian gunsmith that I am aware of). Overall fit and finish of Schultz & Larsen rifles rival custom guns that start at $5,000. and up.
I sold all my Weatherbys and most of my Sako's to concentrate on Schultz & Larsens, and dare I admit it, Marlin lever guns.
Want to adopt me?
I like the Husqvarna I have in 358 NM but I'd still like the caliber
