 <\/p>\n\"Sabatti<\/a>\n

Sabatti is a new brand to me, though it is far from new to firearms. They have been in the gun business for 400 years, an unbroken line of smiths from father to son, with no interruptions. That is a pretty big deal considering most of us, me included, couldn\u2019t tell you how exactly our ancestors arrived on the continent.<\/p>\n

Sabatti has quite a name in Europe, for high quality yet affordable hardware. They make shotguns and double rifles, in addition to bolt actions. In the United States, Sabatti bolt action rifles are brought in via the Italian Firearms Group, based out of Amarillo, Texas.<\/p>\n

The test model we received is the Rover Tactical<\/a>. This gun features a bull barrel, threaded and suppressor ready. Also on board is the new Sabatti multi radial rifling, which they boast is the greatest innovation in rifling in 100 years. Instead of normal lands and grooves, it has rifling of alternating radii. The result looks something like the skin of a golf ball. The benefits are supposed to be higher muzzle velocity, easier cleaning, and more accuracy.<\/p>\n\"Sabatti\n

The stock is a bit chunky on this model, but in the military context, sniper rifle rarely means light. If nothing else, it feels durable. There is a pebble texture on the fore end and grip area, nice for adverse conditions. The rear of the stock features a flat base, which makes sense if you need to use improvised rests. The comb height is adjustable, with a locking mechanism. There are embedded QD sling mounts front and rear, and on both sides.<\/p>\n
