Stock Alert
Please alert me via email when this product is back in stock.
The construction is lighter than its predecessor (Model 54) which was larger and heavier. The rifle has an 18in heavy-profiled barrel, which is screw-cut for a sound moderator (in this case a swift Nightingale)
It is fitted with a walnut thumbhole stock. Skip-line chequering features on both the pistol grip and the fore-end and there is a thick black ventilated recoil pad. There are numerous minor indications of use but all could be confidently removed with the right application of skill.
All machining marks are honed, and the chamber is precision-cut. The rifling has button-rifled lands and is hammer forged, with the standard one-in-8.9in twist for a .17HMR cartridge.
The action has twin 11mm dovetail rails split between the action opening.
If you need a different mount it is also drilled and tapped for scope bases.
The Model 64 has a 1in-diameter cylindrical tube construction, which ensures integral strength and a large locking area for the bolt.
The bolt cocks on opening and is smooth, travelling only 1 3⁄4in in the action.
The cartridge is manipulated from the magazine to the barrel chamber by two large claw extractors sited at three o’clock and nine o’clock on the bolt face, and it is ejected by two protruding tabs in the action base as the bolt is retracted.
The large bolt handle impressed me. It gives a good grip while the large plastic bolt knob ensures positive cycling of the action.
The overall finish is high-quality traditional total immersion bluing. It looks excellent and will be hardwearing if oiled regularly.
Trigger is a match-grade two-stage. . It is incredibly crisp and precise a contributing factor to the great accuracy of all Anschutz rifles.
The safety is a simple sliding catch. When activated, it blocks the trigger and lifts the trigger sear and bolt release catch. This allows the bolt to be opened in the safe position, so you can unload with the safety on.
A 4 round flush-fitting magazine is detachable by moving the release catch forward.
