    Didn’t see a thread on this, and figured since it’s a conversion kit for centerfire actions, it belongs here.

    Super excited!

    Very interesting, excellent outside the box thinking. I am interested to see what kind of market it generates though. I am sure it will be very high at first and then I can see it dropping off. I say this from having owned a precision rifle that was easily convertible from CF to RF I found myself never actually using the conversion because I would want to take both CF and RF to the range when I go. Its much like a CF set up as a switch barrel, you have both calibers, ammo for both, and data including zero POI shift for both but how often do you actually go between the two? If you do switch often how long do you do it before you end up just buying another rifle and scope in that other caliber? Maybe it’s just me...

    This is not to dump on the idea, as I think it is a fantastic idea and applaud Curtis for doing it and best of all the way it sounds they worked with VGW to use their magazines as opposed to ripping off their idea. So well done Curtis, I look forward to seeing more of this action!

    Does these Curtis actions have a mechanical ejector? If not I wonder how the ejection is handled with this conversion?
     
    Did some searching but haven't seen any updates on this. Did I miss anything recent?
