Hi All
Does anyone have experience of these actions from New Zealand? Any feedback would be gratefully received.
Thanks

gzig5The Barnard is probably the best deal in a long range single shot target action available. A lot of Palma shooters use it. It is generally considered the only action that does not need to be cleaned up dimensionally from the factory. They are perfect. It comes with a very good trigger as well. Mac Tilton is the importer. Great guy.

NortmanYou can also have them in other colours. They offer them in certain forms.

Tikka 260Thanks you Guys for the feedback, I am told that Barnard are starting to produce magazine fed option on the 'S' action for hunting purposes, and I am settling on going that route for my next custom project.
It will be in 275 Rigby for UK / European hunting, so nothing too exotic in terms of calibre, simply a delight to shoot and with good accuracy potential.
