Check out Krieghoff's new big game rifle: Semprio

[KahrMan]

Pretty slick slide action rifle. I really like the looks of it. Reminds me of a Blaser.

New Krieghoff Rifles

$5000 is cheaper than I expected, but still I think I'll pass.

The sights look too far forward to be accurate. Too expensive as well. Doesn't look like it will do anything a good bolt action can for a lot cheaper.

That rear sight is way on out there, isn't it? I didn't notice that the first time.

I'm sure they understand that if you can afford a rifle like that, you can afford a scope, and the irons are basically an afterthought. I don't see a rifle that expensive getting even irons slapped on as an afterthought. If they are there, they are probably high quality.

I would love a closer look at one and the action.

Well This is truly something different.

This must be the most complete hunting gun I have ever tried. I do also own Blaser R8, Steyr Scout, Rem 700 , Benelli Argo R1 and some other bolts but nothing gets even close to the semprio.

Its just a shooting machine. The inline action works great, you are able to fire four rounds very fast (less than 2 sec) with full target control and with a detachable magazine and "real" take down you can hardly ask for more.

The one I tried (150 rounds) had a suppressor on it. made fast target acqusition very easy and I did shoot faster than with my Argo R1 due to less recoil.

For field use I dont think it could be better.
