Has anyone here seen / handled / shot the new Grunig Elmiger Racer match rifle? I'm wondering if any of the European members has any experience?

The racer has not been released to the public yet, first release isnt until October 2010. G & E have several prototypes they had at Munich. but these are different to what is being released.

Have handled the action: IMHO way to complicated. About a dozen springs and seperate parts just to reload. It looks nice but I expect a lot of problems with temperature differences, dirt (mostly because it's impossible to clean everything) and wear.
But let's see how it works in competition!

The loading mech has all been changed, as has several parts of the action. Expect more or less a duplicate of a Bleiker when they release the first version.

You can have a Lilja or a Shilen barrel
