Is the Anschutz F27 Challenger rifle like Du Li used in the London World Cup being shot by any other top shooter and is it available for sale in the U.S.?

I know Champs Choice had one at perry last year. I don't really understand the reasoning behind it. It's kinda cool I guess.

I couldn't find it on their website, I guess nobody was buying them.

As far as I know, no. That are ot avialable in the US. I think you can contact Anschutz and get one from the factory, buIm not sure.

The idea behind the F27 is that it operates like a biathalon rifle, but has the extreme accuracy needed for smallbore shooting. The concept, I thought, was cool and could be benificial in minimizing movements and reducing reload time. But the shear cost of the gun is insane. if they made it for 4 or 4.5 grand then people probably would have considered it a bit more.
