i wouldn't drop $200 on anything in their line honestly
i just commented really on the price point and the accuracy claim that is inline with other hunting rifles of today

Why is it mandatory rifles be butt ugly these days. I‘m sure not spending money on an ugly Taurus.

As far as cheaper rifles, have you seen or held one of the new Savage/stevens rifles? walnut for under 400 bucks. Saw one in person the other day.

Performance, value, and accuracy all come together in the 334 bolt action rifle. This 334 Walnut rifle is built for demanding hunts.

I wouldn't buy one at this point in history, simply because I can setup a Howa much cheaper and already know what they will do. There are too many cheap options right now.
As far as all other general comments, I'll be the odd one and offer to take any inferior PT940s as pictured off your hand at a good price. I think I have 3-4 semis and revolvers I picked up a long time ago that have never had a problem.

It’s a 10 footer IMO.
Held one the other day.
You know when you can just tell when tools are made in China? They have a certain feel, and…..smell. It might look and work great even but there is just that other stuff that sours you on it.
Well that is one of those guns you can just tell it is made in Turkey. The feel, that classic Turkish blackish metal finish, and…you guessed it….the smell.
I would buy one second hand.

You made me finally open the link... kinda like when you're cousin says he's dating a rough looking woman from Hyde County. You don't really want to see it but part of you needs the reference.
They woulda been much better off taking the Mossberg route with something that resembles a rifle worthy of $350 and put them on the rack at Walmart so someone might accidentally purchase one.
I'm pretty sure Savage and Ruger have the entry level rifles covered. And if anyone is inclined to drop money at the next tier they'd be crazy to not grab an X Bolt or T3X.

I'm gathering the parts now to assemble a rifle this spring....
It is so ugly that I've come around to admiring it and getting enthused by its simplicity and function. It's a one-trick pony but it hopefully is well purposed solely for such.
I sure hope it plays well with the other sticks when placed into the dark confines of the gun safe.

Saw a couple videos recently about those, touting the accuracy of them, I'd definitely buy one of those before I'd buy a rifle from Taurus !As far as cheaper rifles, have you seen or held one of the new Savage/stevens rifles? walnut for under 400 bucks. Saw one in person the other day.

Looked fine, didn't like the picatinny rail on a wood gun, need to come threaded also. Store said they could sale the wood for 389ish, the synthetic which I haven't held or seen yet in person has a cheaper msrp so I'm curious what it would sale for.
Taurus did make some nice 22 rifles not so long ago, had some good winchester copies.

I’d bet those will be on clearance at CDNN in a year at half that price. Not sure who thought that was a good idea.

Always wanted that model. Haven't seen one in years.
