While I am a fan of Austrian guns I have some issues with rear locking lugs! 🤠👍

Having the opportunity to shoot a Steyr several years ago, it is a good shooting rifle. I was not aware the barrel was threaded so deeply into the receiver. That does, indeed, help explain the inherent accuracy of the design.

Especially with a set trigger.

I owned a couple of the 16" heavy barreled version in the mid-80s. They were reliably sub-MOA out to 300 yards with good ammo. Would love to see a review of the SSG-08 if you ever get the opportunity.

Bloke recently put a vid up about bolt throw and locking lugs using his normal ensemble cast.

I bet if you used a rear bag that group would shrink substantially.

Steyr equals quality.

ah! the cool thing before the accuracy international. not the od one though. shot a few steyr 222s. very very smooooth bolts. great quality. not to trashtalk your skills but because range... no chance henry will get hit hands on this or...? that would be one canidate to reach out a bit more than 100.

As Ian was pulling the trigger that was my first thought! 😄

Very well done video. I enjoyed your showing the parts and then going to the range, all in same show. Perhaps a few words about the bipod would have been useful.

It would be fun to see what Henry could do with that. Thanks Ian
