SHOT SHOW 2020: Sig Sauer Cross Rifle

[flipincanadian]

Boy do I want one of these. It looks like it will make a great all round hunting/prs rig.

 

[7.62mm]

I'd buy that rifle!

 

[rifleman338]

Yup, I can see this freeing up a lot of space in the safe. Nice do all rifle.

Looks like they are going after the RPR to me.
Also looks like they kinda missed the boat if they are after PRS. The forend doesn't look like it's intended for PRS, but hopefully can add ARCA rail.

I cant see this appealing to many hunters, maybe predator/hog hunters. Its like the Benelli M4, how many guys upland hunters hunt with it even though its a sweet shotgun. That being said Id buy one !!!

I don't believe Sig made this rifle for PRS shooters. It's designed for the same crowds that are buying the Q The Fix rifle.

Mostly, hunters wanting a modular modern day rifle that's light.

Yuuup. Lots already hunt with precision style rifles.

It has to be NR for me. I was hoping to get a 308 at some stage but if only the 6.5 can squeak by as nr then maybe its a sign to try that. Even though its not intended as a prs gun, i can see the why some are bringing up the rpr. Ive considered a 20" in 308 as a kind of do it all rifle that is a bolt and has a 10 round mag. Its fairly heavy though which can be an issue and ultimately not designed for it. The cross would fill that gap no doubt.

 

[phillyblt]

I think they looks great. I'd def buy one of those if NR.

 

[JayCarver]

At 6.5lbs I don't this this is intended as or would make a good PRS rifle, if's that is what you want get a T3x CTR and drop it in a KRG bravo chassis, mush better for a PRS rifle at the same price.

I think this is for guys that like chassis rifles and want to hunt with them but don't want the weight of most chassis.

Sig got a lot right on this rifle in my opinion:
Light (6.5lbs)
Fully adjustable, butt pad even has height and cant adjustment
Switch barrel
Sub 1/2moa accuracy
Folding stock
Nice two stage trigger(I've heard from people I trust, obviously have tried one)

Only thing I would want to see is a 3 position safety or even like the Tikkas and the bolt locked when on safe. Yes I realize the stock folds over the bolt but I cant see me carrying it while hunting with the stock folded. In most situations where I would have the stock folded It would be unloaded(transport, storage, etc)

All that said, it might be my hunting rifle next season...

 

[GreenBob]

pretty, let see the accuracy report.

 

[driller212]

I was expecting this thread to blow up. This is a very innovative rifle, and at a decent price point as well. This is the rifle I am the most excited about right now. So neat!

 

[1ABNDT]

Boom! Lots of great rifles this year and different flavours Sigs Cross, Benelli's Lupo, DD Delta 5. and many many more.

 

[Suther]

The .308 model will be at 25" when folded. That will an "R" then ?

The 6.5 CM will be at 27" folded ..... Looks like this will be the NR ?

I would hope they're smart enough to figure it out and send us slightly longer barrels if necessary to remain NR.

 

[Brian46]

First thing,the rifle is very light and compact.

any actual numbers?

The guy who designed the fix by Q worked as a designer for Sig before opening his own company. I guess he figures Sig was not going to produce the rifle.

According to SIG, these rifles will be coming out with PRS versions later in the year as well. Heavier chassis, longer (24") barrels, etc. They've also strongly suggested that other caliber kits, including 223, are coming!
