there's some good looking guns if they'll perform at dollar per price point like the standard ones they're going to be awesome

First thought was they finally brought back SS, but it's just ceracote. Probably still pick one up in 22 ARC as soon as they come out, even though I don't like AR mags on bolt guns.

The grendel might be nice.


That said they are so busy making $$$$ on these, no wonder you can not find any 77's (which I really don't care about) or #1's (which I do care about.)

Not crazy about the magazine but i do like the 3 position safety, if they offer it in .450 Bushmaster ill probly get one for an Ohio rifle....Hb

- "Can we please have stainless?"

- "Nope..... Cerakote and spiral flutes."

Kinda cool they're 8.5 twist on the 7-08's though.

They got the barrel length right. The standard had the 22" then some of the other models were 18". Finally, a 20" barrel. I wonder if the 3 position safety trigger group will retro-fit to the older models?

I'd imagine these will hit the market at around $650.

They somehow managed to make the stock uglier.

Though one wonders if ergos have improved along with stiffness. Be curious to fondle one. Pretty being what pretty does…..

Just from the pictures, it looks like that stock will have the same magwells as the previous gen. Hopefully, you will be able to change between AICS magwell and the AR magwell to fix any oal issues.

Interesting to note the difference magazine releases between the Standard and Ranch rifle.

More money for a rifle that likely still feeds badly.

I’ll probably try one in the 400 legend

Nitride could have been nice.

I need to learn more, I can't see why the 20" barrel is a good thing. I was hoping for longer on some, not shorter.

I knew they had feed issues with their plastic rotary style mag. But all of this look to have the AI style, AI style, or metal box.

AI has worked fine for me, rotary and AR, not so much.

Nice, my only gripe is these rifles (first gen RAR) feed like schidt. They shoot well though. Have they done anything about how they feed? If not, I'm not buying. I'll let my buddies buy them and I get to test the accuracy out on them.

The stock design won't get any of my money.

Q1/2024 release . . . . be interesting to see how long in fact they take to hit the dealers racks.




Shorter equals stiffer. Maybe not a big deal for most, but a definite plus for those that hang a suppressor off the end.



Kind of intrigued by the adjustable LOP and comb. Time will tell.

I have two of the old models left hand. I hope the safeties fit the one thing I can’t stand about the Americans is how easy the bolts pop open.

The AI mag models feed very well.
