New Coup De Grâce Bolt Action -- Thoughts?

ebb said:
Snoozberries yu need to have a long talk with Ted about bolt knobs. His actions are state of the art, but the bolt knobs just plain suck.

I mean I could try if I see him again, but he's going to want actionable feedback. What don't you like. What do you want to see different. Why? Do you have drawings of what you want?
 
Snooz I am only kidding . Ted makes products as he sees fit and rightfully so. They are threaded on to the bolt and on require minimal work to replace with a handle of your/my choosing. I have a feeling that these are so weird as to get conversation going on the forums. Any press is good press.

Got my new Coup de Grace action Friday, had a Barlein barrel spun up and waiting. Strictly a hunting rifle but the action is very nice and the trigger hanger is nothing short of awesome. 7Saum and it fed perfectly out of a AICS mag. Only maybe a dozen rounds thru it with the same load I've used in my last 2 7SAUMs. It shoots.
Trigger Tech Trigger, Dead Air can , MDT Hunt 26 Chassis, Riton 7 Conquer on it for testing.

Hello Larry,

May I know about when you placed your order? I've been patiently waiting since Feb 16, so trying to figger when I may get the call...

And to you critics in the peanut gallery of its looks, I got the red bolt knob (of course!) so it would match the trigger hanger. My wife is a fashion maven, and has taught me things. As Homer Simpson once said, "Hey, if you don't like it, go to Russia."

When you get it, let me know if it cycles smoothly.

It seems like a batch of them just got received by people, but still from the first day of ordering.

I'm assuming that's how it's going to be too for a while. A batch of parts from some part of the supply chain will show up at ARC and then they can send out as many as they can. Then it's a big waiting game for the next round.

I don't think they are even past fulfilling day 1 orders still at this point.

I was also hoping that lefty short actions would be next, but the SH thread said that right hand long actions are next in line.

So I'll be waiting even longer for part of my order.

I think they look weird too, but I would love to try one. Design elements happen for a reason. If not for aesthetics, then for function.

Ted is strong on function.
I remember asking him to do a round ball like AI and he said the egg handle was enough of a concession.
I like the egg but swapped the original back on earlier this year and haven’t gone back.

About 2 days after they were available to order. Mag bolt face, short action RH. Would have ordered it sooner but the site was insane.
