Well, mine is a 453, and they are different in more ways than just the trigger. The bolt is also different. Mine feeds TC, HP, RN, Dynapoints -- bulk and not so bulk. Must have got the only good one they made according to you guys, but some folks over on rimfire central think otherwise. To each his own. Mine has shot one hole groups consistetly at 25 and 50 - haven't tried it further out yet.

The different bolts used on 452 vs 453 models is news to Me, I thought the only difference was the trigger...................Hillbilly.

Someone said that that the set triger required a changeto the bottom of the bolt. Haven't done a side by side, but I saw some pictures on rimfire central.
Anyway, mine is laser guided accurat.e . . . really.

You think I'm going to worry about the view of someone who can't bring a raccoon down off the rafters with a 12ga.?
You can grind your belly button off on the belt and it won't bother me none.
Addition: Just to let you know, Rhonda hung around awhile yesterday. A Southern Women scorned is not a pretty sight.

I've never had any problems with:
Remington 580 single shot Remington 581 clip fed Marlin 880 Ruger 77/22 Ruger 10/22
All shoot and function well so long as kept moderately clean. I have never found 22LR to be as difficult as some make them out to be.

Maybe nothing with the top of the line models that use the 54 action (I have never owned one, they are too heavy for Me) but I have owned 5 different Anschutz rifles that use the 64 action and not one would reliably eject a spent case....that's way too many rifles to have just gotten hold of a bad apple, I think the Anschutz 64 action is chit!.............Hillbilly.

I did own a few 541T's in years past and I can't recall any functioning issues, you may be onto something here...........Hillbilly.

I have recently considered an Anschutz Mod 1712 since Anschutz changed to the new side safety for 2010, but I have zero experience with these 1700 series rifles, I don't even know a soul that owns one, do the 1700 series Anschutz rifles have the "bullet proof" action I'm searching for?...............Hillbilly.

I have one in 22 Mag. The Bolt is massive with two front locking lugs, never a glitch in feeding from the magazine. This gun shoots 3/4" groups at 100 yards, fantastic trigger to boot.

I think the new 1712 might be just the ticket, My only fault with it looking at the specs is that it is quite a bit heavier than I like for a 22lr..................Hillbilly.

Watch for a 1712 Featherweight. It has a McMillian stock if, you don't mind synthetics. Some of the early 1712 Fwt's would make the 7 1/2 pound weight limit with a scope. The 1712's are a favorite on the Smallbore Hunter Silhouette Ranges. I have one with a wood stock and one in a McMillian. They are my favorite using rifles. They have 2-stage triggers and pull about 1 1/2 pounds, come to a stop, then 8 to 10 ounces more to fire it. This is because of the 2 pound trigger pull rule for silhouette.

I love synthetic stocks but in IR 50/50 competitions 7.5 lb class they are not allowed, with this rifle it doesn't really matter anyway, I just want a super accurate rifle with a bullet proof action that performs without problems, the only real draw back I can see with this rifle is it's rather hefty weight. Will Anschutz build a featherweight model for 2010 with the new side mounted safety? the only reason I'm considering the 1712 is because Anschutz changed the safety to something more conventional, I really detest the old safety................Hillbilly.
