These new offerings will be available in stainless steel and lightweight aluminum configurations, with various barrel and stock options.
Configurations will feature a 2.25 lb. trigger pull, 1/2 x 28 threaded barrel, 0 MOA integral Picatinny rail, and a 9-round magazine capacity.
A non-threaded barrel option will also be available.
“When we started manufacturing the Summit in 22 LR, we knew that caliber was only the beginning of what was possible from the straight-pull toggle bolt design. We applied what we learned in refining the Summit 22 LR and knew it would be ideal for a 22 WMR and 17 HMR version,” commented Volquartsen President Scott Volquartsen.
From the ranch to the range, the Summit rifle is designed to be versatile but, most importantly, reliable. Assembled with Volquartsen’s signature, wire-EDM cut internal components, the Summits are built to perform from a bench but are durable enough for the toughest field use.
