I see it. Tell us a little about it.
Thats a Anschutz 2013 in a Grunig and Elmiger RSII stock. Hard to believe its a 22LR huh? Its my smallbore position rifle for conventional and international competitions. She shoots amazing well. A couple years ago I got the Lilja short barrel and the long ESP bloop tube (to put the front sight back where it needs to be) and that brought the center of gravity back some and now it "fire hoses" less in standing. You can change the barrel in 5 minutes with a torque wrench, the barrel is "pinched" in place not threaded.
Ahh...thank you. Very interesting. I've dealt with screwed, slipped, and pinned barrels, but "pinched" is new to me. How does that work?
The action is slit on one side of the barrel bore and there are 3 screws that pinch the action and hold the barrel. Here is a photo I found on the internet.
That's sure a new one on me. I can see how it would work with a .22. Is it used on larger calibers?
No, this is only for 22LR and only on this specific action. Anschutz traditionally are pressed and pinned barrel actions, this one came out about 20 years ago, now they have a new one that is threaded.
That's a far cry from this
