Description

Anschutz 1710 D HB Bolt Action Rimfire Rifle 22 Long Rifle 23″ Barrel Blued and Walnut for sale

The Anschutz target bolt action, which is used in this Anschutz 1710 hunting repeater, has dominated national and international competitions including the Olympic Games and the World Championships in the small bore rifle disciplines. The bolt movement, as with all Anschutz equipment, is extra ordinarily smooth and effortless. The bolt face is set back so that the rim of the cartridge is fully supported by the bolt head. The tried and tested arrangement of claw- extractor and cartridge holder ensures reliable case extraction. The one-piece firing pin has a defined end-stop area to prevent damage from dry firing. The receiver is equipped with an 0.43″ wide, Anschutz Wave Style, V-block riflescope mounting dovetail rail. On some models there are additional drilled and tapped holes provided for scope mounting bases and rings. The independent bolt catch, mounted on the left side of the receiver, limits the movement of the bolt and protects the trigger. A gas vent hole on the side of the extractor groove directs the gas safely to the side in the event of cartridge failure. The sliding safety catch on the right hand side, a recent improvement, blocks the trigger sear in the safe position and simultaneously lifts the trigger sear and bolt release latch. The bolt can also be opened in the safe position, allowing unloading the fi rearm with the safety engaged.

This easy-to-handle hunting stock, made of lacquered walnut, directs the recoil evenly and horizontally to the rear to the black recoil-reducing synthetic butt plate, considerably reducing recoil that is felt. The easy to grip deep-cut German chequering on the pistol grip and the fore-end provides optimum grip in damp weather and accentuates the spirited profile. The lacquered surface provides excellent weather-resistance in rain, ice and snow. The stock is fitted with sling swivel studs.
