I already have an AI AX but I want a modern straight-pull very badly so if the price point is right I may have one of the first few in my safe.

Q Switch Barrel Rifle for SHOT

I have used Blaser R8's extensively in all conditions. Extremely reliable and accurate. If this rifle is based on the straight pull / collet bolthead system similar to the Blaser it could be great.
Easy caliber changes From .223 to the big Jeffreys, with consistent return to zero.
Hoping the quality is similar.
Also, notice that the straight pull system can be inherently shorter overall with the trigger assembly partially under the bolt system. On the Blaser the OAL is about 3" shorter than a conventional bolt action.
It appears that this new entry also has that shorter OAL benefit.

under $3k would be a game changer, especially for a chassis like that. Is that Kevin Boland from Knights?

Was actually starting to look at the AIAX, Desert Tech as well as the Barrett MRAD for a switch barrel setup but couldn't substantiate the cost. If this is $3k or under, and isn't cutting corners compared to those that are $5k+, I'd be very interested.

This is going to be very big in the precision rifle world. Now it would be ultra trick if it can cycle as fast as a Merkel Helix.

This could be very very interesting. Any word on if they are already being produced or if this is going to be something a few years away?

Not a straight pull bolt per their IG account, but a "short throw" bolt. Interesting design, kinda looks like a AK receiver. Following

He added another photo today. 45 degree bolt throw, 5 lug, claiming under 6lbs, and will have 308 bolt face, and magnum bolt face options (short action only currently). So this might be pretty interesting to see where it goes.
