Re: My DTA SRS .338 came in the mail today
I have a Bullpup design on a bolt action question: Does the placement of the bolt have any negative effects? I mean, I can cycle my 308 without moving my head off the rifle, I can cycle my 30-06 and 300wm without moving my shoulder from the rifle. Seems to me that you would have to dismount the rifle completely to cycle the bolt.
That said, the 338 should have enough vortex-sucking power to suck your enemy combatant into the 4th dimension just by getting close...
Just an observation. Any comments for the uneducated?

They are actually very comfortable to use, and you can cycle the bolt without any difficulties.

Cycling the bolt on a DTA SRS is not a problem at all. I ocassionally tap the right headphone of my ear protection, then again, my head's the size of a state fair pumpkin, so there you have it.

Maybe it's just me - but I find SRS bolt cycling <span style="text-decoration: underline">more</span>convenient than on my trusted Rem 700. Faster, shorter movement.

Likewise here - cycling the bolt while keeping the scope on the target and observing it.

Oh no, not at all.
Now, for me - excessively big ear protectors/muffs do interfere, but:

Same here - I'm a converted fanboy now.

762 told me that even for left handed people the bolts aren't that hard to cycle. But I'm going to wait until they make left handed version, then I'll hand over my money.

Re: My DTA SRS .338 came in the mail today
Hey guys thanks for all the comments. The rifle is UNBELIEVABLY 100% much much more than I ever could have imagined. The bolt is smooth as silk, and the amount of tweaking you can do with trigger is amazing in itself with 1 tool. I have a custom made heavy barreled .308 from vegas gun works, and I have around 6k in the gun. And its a great gun, but it doesn't even fit in the same category of elite weapons that the DTA SRS is in. Knowing what I know now about the DTA, I would of payed a hell of a lot more for it than I did. It is truly an amazing weapon system. The balance and weight are bounds in front of the competition. And that's not even taking into account that you can convert this thing into any caliber you want. Anyone on the fence on this gun, get your ass off the fence and get 1 of these rifles, your other long guns will get real dusty. Oh and palmik, it is a 5.5-22x56 NXS ZeroStop. Really wanted a S&B but maybe next year.
