Weight action + barrel

Post by BM »

I would like to know the difference in weight between an Anschütz 1913 with short barrel compared to a normal lenght barrel (69cm)?

The normal Anschutz 1913 (69cm) weighs approx. 3.1kilogram.
The short barrel is not listed on the Anschütz website so I therefore ask here. If someone has that combo, 1913 action with f.e. Lilja short barrel, I would really like to know.

Anschutz don't offer a short barrel version of the 1913, which is why it isn't listed.

However I think it would be about 300g less (so 2.8kg total), the same as the 1907 barrel/action. I once worked out (very roughly) the volume of the 1907 barrel, and then figured that to increase the diameter to the same as a 1913, but keeping the same weight as the 1907, the resulting length would be about 21in.

For what is worth, watch out for the advertised weights on the Anchitz barreled actions. They don't include the bolt!!!! Add about 0.7 lbs
