Thought that looked like a Savage type trigger
Wonder why 6.5CM & not .260Rem ?
Good to see them also offer .243 & .308 as well
Over to Viking Arms to fetch a container full over
A reasonable price in the good old US of A but it will be interesting to see what the UK gets charged $ for £ i.e. £1100? I will have to start saving again since I would like one in 6.5CM.

Brace yourselves folks. Just spoke to Viking and though this was just a guess the chap I spoke to thought it would be at least 9 months before the UK gets any and guessed at a price of about £2k. Ouch.

I would rate an AI above a Ruger! if you must know it was £3399 (bought before the price increase).
