The straight pull repeater action can easily be operated with the index finger to open it for reloading. The action is closed again with the thumb. The shooter reloads the rifle with just one movement of the wrist. The hand operating the trigger will remain at the grip and even the elbow does not have to move. The shooter thus only needs little time for focusing. The lock time is extraordinarily short and it makes a high hit rate possible. Anschutz presented, as one of the first manufacturers in the world, a rifle that sets the standard in this caliber from the very start. The renowned Anschutz precision and quality teamed with the fastest cartridge in the world produces the ultimate answer for varmint hunting with minimum pelt damage.
