Steyr Arms ProHunter III SX .243 Win 20" Threaded Bbl Green/Black Rifle 66.07295.011120A

The Pro Hunter III SX is a prime example of Steyr’s dedication to producing cutting edge firearms. It comes equipped with Steyr’s innovative Safe Bolt System or SBS. This unique system has a 2+1 safety function has three settings operated by a wheel selector mounted in the tang of the receiver. The first level deactivates the firing mechanism and the second level locks the bolt in place. The SBS also features a press-to-release tab that locks the switch down in the safe and locked position. The fire mode is indicated by a red dot. The bolt of the Pro Hunter III SX is outfitted with four forward locking lugs that need to be rotated 60° to unlock the bolt, and features a patented safety bushing and multiple gas ports. The safety bushing and gas ports offers an enhanced level of protection against unexpected, excessive chamber gasses and pressure.

In addition, the Pro Hunter III SX features a 2-stage magazine securing mechanism. The first stage will lock the magazine in the weapon but allows the bolt to be operated without chambering cartridges in the magazine. This allows the shooter to manually load individual rounds by hand, but still have a fully loaded magazine at the ready. Tapping the bottom of the magazine will activate the second stage, and allows the auto loading of rounds.

• Safe Bolt System (SBS) 2+1 safety function
