One Rifle Took More Game Than His Other 62 Combined (ft. Steyr Arms)
About this episode
John and Kailey discuss the Steyr AUG rifle and its significance in hunting with guest Jim from Steyr Arms.
This week, John and Kailey sit down with Jim of Steyr Arms to get into the AUG's rise to one of the most-fielded rifles in the world, the surprising Steyr link to the Mercedes G-Wagon, the new AREX pistol collaboration, and the engineering behind the Safe Bolt System, including the over-pressure test that lets a shooter walk away from a completely blocked barrel. Jim also breaks down the legendary Steyr Scout, the only rifle that meets every one of Jeff Cooper's original requirements, and why he's taken more game with it than his other 62 hunting rifles combined. ___________ Register for GOALS GOA's 50th Anniversary, August 1–2 in Des Moines, IA.
