Single shot

Post by mdietrich »

Can a hunter silhouette rifle be a solid bottom action? Does it have to be a repeater?

Wondering why I couldn't find a used 14-19 series Ahg with 5078 trigger and use that as a basis with proper tapered barrel and after market stock.

Thanks,

Morgen

A single shot rifle can be used as a hunter class rifle. It does not have to be a repeater action.
I have an Anschutz model 54 match single shot action mounted in an after market stock. It is one of my hunter class smallbore rifles.

Yes you can, can use even the nice 5018 trigger with upgraded springs to meet the 2.0 lbs minimum.

For the past few years I have been shooting a Hunter class rifle built off of either a 1400 or 1600 series Anschutz. Never had any trouble passing pre-match tech. at any NRA match for Hunter class. I bought it from a friend who had it built many years ago. I do not know how they made the trigger fit but it has a brand new 5022 trigger on it, the 2 pound version of the 5018. Personally, if I ever had a new rifle built it would be using one of the more modern shorter custom actions.
