Beretta "BRX1" Straight Pull .308Win Rifle (accuracy testing @ 100 yards)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 18 жов 2021
- The Beretta BRX1 rifle is a straight pull bolt action that provides smooth quick followup shots in the field or on the range. It is available in 6.5 Creedmoor, 308 Winchester, 30-06 Springfield and 300 Winchester Magnum. I tested it in 308 and found it to be ultra reliable without any performance issues at all.

Thanks for speaking out for us left-hand people, all my rifles are right-handed because I could NOT get LH rifle!
This just popped up here on the East coast of the USA and I have to get up early tomorrow, but I'll watch it tomorrow. I love your review's and Beretta, I bet I'll have to buy a new gun. Thanks a lot, oh wait that's a good thing! Ruger Rich
A review that made sense! Thank you for that, it's rare these days. Round feed and magazine operation are so important in Alaska where you want quick round feed on bears especially. You spoke to that right away and it is appreciated. Trigger pull is so important and you nailed that, too. Well done.
In North America, I see this rifle best used for Moose, Bear, and Boars that warrant fast following shots or multiple targets in the hunt of Boars.
Which is why this rifle needs to be offered in the .338 Winchester Magnum caliber as well.
The Alaskan and Canadian guides and hunters would go wild for it and so would the Boar guides and hunters in the Southern U.S.A.
A great product from Beretta and a great video review. Thank You.
Nice ... So glad people are bring out more straight pull stuff.
Excellent review as always. The rifle looks very well built and the review shows it functions smoothly. I am looking forward to seeing this gun come to the US. Now, about those batteries!
Cheers Ozzie always a good video mate love how you always do an honest review and not a sale's pitch keep up the topshelf work my friend take care and give Hank a pat for me lol cheers 🍻👍
I came to see if you could keep your cheek weld when reloading...and you delivered! I've always appreciated your thought out testing methods, especially for real world shooting situations. I looks like this will fit the bill if a rapid follow up shot on big game is necessary. Thanks for the great review.
I love your reviews mate you have the best job in Australia
As a lefty I’m loving this thing and I think Beretta is the best and oldest gun company in the world!🤯🔫👍🏼
Very nice rifle and good review mate.
Nice! I'm sure the accuracy will improve after a bit of break in, but still good out of the box. Hopefully Beretta can get these to market sooner rather than later.
Great review 👌👍
Beautiful rifle
Yeah baby, been waiting for this sort of thing to hit Auz, there is a Savage one coming aswell, has a lithgow look about it I reckon
Howdy from Canada 🇨🇦. As a lefty the Savage Impulse got my attention being able to swap the bolt to either side but not the case ejection. This rifle has both and I'm amazed how little the bolt handle moves to lock/unlock the action. Sounds like an excellent adjustable trigger too. Very well done review, I'm a new subscriber.
Savage impulse feels crappy.. finnaly got a hold of one.... Not impress. Looks smooth. Def not.
Plus its frontend heavy
mrYaj00 thanks for posting that. Saves me time not looking for one.
Haven't you tried a blaser?
chris dousman the Blaser series are outta my price range.
Interesting rifle, I don’t really know what I’m getting over a BAR here but it’s cool.
Very interesting rifle dude. Never really heard of straight pull bolt actions until a few years ago now they seem to be popping up everywhere looking forward to getting my hands on one. Cool video.
They've been around for over 100 years, I dunno why they've just begun to get popular the the last few.
They had been quite popular, with several models made, until WWI.
Unfortunately the combination of heavy usage and trench warfare took its toll on the inherently weaker extraction of straight pulls. Only the Mannlicher 1895 didn't seem to have problems in that situation. That demonstrated that a robust and reliable military straight pull could be done, but Austria lost the war and was basically canceled from the map, so the Mannlicher action became only a curiosity and, in WWII , all the residual bolt actions used were manually rotating bolts and, with the end of the war, it had became an identity. Bolt action = manually rotating bolts.
I have had mine for 3 months now and blooded it on a nice NT boar yesterday. I bought it literally as a pig hunt for mainly shooting running boars. Mine is a 20" barrel version in .308 fitted with an Aimpoint Red Dot.
Pros; Good ergonomics, acceptable trigger, easy scope mounting, I like that you can remove spacers in the butt to get the LOP just right, I like the matt blued metal work, magazine works well, accurate, I like the safety.
Cons: Heavy, could do with being up to 1.5lb lighter. Id pay more for one if it had a carbon fibre stock, Bolt is a pain in the ass to remove, would prefer it available with Iron Sights ( batue configuration), Would like to have large capacity mags available and finally its a very ugly rifle, That rounded for-end is hideous.
Overall it's still a very decent quality hunting rifle.
I'd love to have one with adjustable iron sights. Scopes are cool, it would be a nice option.
Great review. One thing to point out. The barrel is in deed changable. But Beretta has yet two years after relase not started to sell them.
Sako have always been the go too brand. I got the best groups
Wow. All the second and third shots of the groups were close. Like to see how it goes on 5-6 shots on same ammo.
Would love some more variety in the available calibers. 6,5x55, 9,3x62 and such. Also an adjustable comb for better shootingcomfort. Apart from that this looks like a decent rifle.
Nice video.Would of been cool to show how it can be taken apart completely, then put together again in 2 minutes. Like the Blaser R8.
i own one myself and was really interested in seeing your thoughts on it , i love it and cant fault it but im still waiting on the 10 round magazine to come out
Great review as always. Could you tell us what we're the top one or two most accurate out of the box rifles you've tested? Cheers
Good video👌🏼
GOOD VIDEO THANKS
Yes an Aimpoint Red Dot on that Beretta would be Sweet 👌
Dream property setup
Please review the Benelli Lupo. Keep up the great videos!
New rifle ,3 shot groups mostly under an inch. A very accurate rifle for hunting purposes. A better shooter might be able to get slightly better groups but a pointless exercise really. Once it is run in it may shoot better or worse. I have rifles that like having a dirty barrel and others that must be spotlessly clean or they shoot like crap , in particular if shooting pure cooper projectiles like Barnes TTSX. nice rifle would have one tomorrow but do not need any more rifles and haven't won lotto.
Range testing starts at 7:45
Great to finally see a straight pull rifle that probably won't be banned based on appearance.
Hello my friend! Great review!
Yeeaaaah the straight pull 👍
I like the orange mag. At least if you drop it you can see easily.
I do like those 'upper scale' synthetic stocks on rifles in this class.
I could get to really like the straight pull bolt. The only experience I have with a straight pull bolt so far, is on my Swiss K31.
Nice looking rifle Ozzie, thanks for this.
id choose a K31 over this any day ;) beautiful rifle!
@@pearman2246 Yes it is Pear Man ( in my opinion at least ) all original and does shoot rather well too and is as accurate as I can be.
@@pearman2246 I swear K31s were $600 last time I looked... now they're $3k wew. Time flies.
Hey Ozzie,
Can you review the Warwick pump please?! Love to hear your take on it! Thanks 🙏
Really nice review 👍🏻
Do you mind to do a comparison with the Italians?
Beretta brx1 Vs Benelli Lupo
Love it. Though I think I prefer the savage version of the straight pull
Great review! Interesting and similar to the Blaser R8, especially the interchangeable barrels/calibers. Hope there will be aftermarket stocks/chassis like KRGs or MDTs. Looks pretty ugly with that synthetic stock.
More like mauser 96 / roesler titan 16
I doesn't have the blazer accuracy but it doesn't have the blazer price either.
Hi Ozzie, Question how would you rate the BRX compared to the Merkel Helix or the Blaser R8?
I would be interested in hearing your choice between the Benelli Lupo or the Beretta, they look similar, difference in bolt action. Lupo looks to be, not only from your review, but by others too to be extremely accurate. Your thoughts?
Went to my gun shop today to see when there coming in apparently early next year some time is all she could tell me
I wish I could have 1 but I can only dream
Great video as always.
There are quite a few straight-pull rifles nowadays, have you handled some of the others? Do you have a favourite?
As far as the safety, most of the high end European manufacturers offers a manual cocking system instead of a traditional safety. I love that feature and would not be without it on my primary hunting rifle.
So how do you compare it to the Browning "Maral" 308WIN Rifle mate?
Ordered one
I’ll bet that rifle will shoot sub MOA with heavier ammo. In the neighborhood of 175 to 180 grain range. Beretta states the 308 has a 1:10 twist ratio. That tends to stabilize heavier bullets better.
Hi，Can you make a video about the bolt and bolt carrier disassemble？The locking mechanism is totally new. Thanks!
Isn't the 308 designed to shoot 150-165 grain bullets? I thought the sweet spot was around 155 grains, will a 1-12 twist stabilize 130 grain ? Would be interesting to see it tested with standard weight projectiles.
Well done Beretta, they "copied" the R8 Blaser and managed to make a good shotgun at a low cost but in my opinion the Blaser R8 is better, it costs much more but it has all the perfect features and Blaser also has years of experience and has also tested the 375 H&H with the same system and it works very well, however Beretta did well to build the "BRX1" rifle, well done.
I think you got the trigger wrong 900, 250, 200grams? It sounded insane so I checked theire website and it says 950 to 1500 grams.
Question. What is the finish on the barel, bolt, and receiver? Is it blued, melonite, or something else?
H&K sold this type of straight pull in the 'States' in the mid '90's..[M96] Round bolt although that can out the back. about a 15 degree crank then straight.. no switching to lefty, some plastic and wood stock.. I see that it is still in Europe as Mauser.
Had the Mauser M96 in .308 very accurate but a complicated bolt very tight tolerances it sure didn't like the wind blown sand on a Stewart Island hunting trip.
Looks very much like a Blaser rifle which have been built in Germany for many years!
👏👏👏
Can you close the bolt slowly on a round or does it need to be slammed like a Blaser
How about savage straight pull rifle, which is batter? I am bit worry about safety, I don't think savage straight pull rifle is better than this
Anyone kno anything about the Black creek labs mrx ?
There are a few out in the dealerships ready for order but are they unreliable as people say they are ?
Sako , n° 1 !
Anyone know what the release date for the US is?
Is the scope in the way of easily manipulating the safety?
@ozziereviews g'day mate you still got that covenanter arms br22 cz455 22 rifle? They seem to be discontinued and I'd love to get my hands on one if you'd be interested to sell it?
Has the Lupo been released here yet?
It looks like you have to have a scope mount and scope with every barrel.
Is nobody going to talk about this is a streight copy of a german blaser r8 and r93?
Lithgow la102 or This? I feel the la102 is just as good and cheaper.
How about scope rail it's attached to one side , and most of it floats , won't heavy bullets will vibrate the crap out of it and messes my zero of the scope I bet it vibrates really bad when recoil kicks in.
Beratta BRX1 mi alalım CZ 557 mi alalım hangisi daha güzel ve kaliteli
How much is the rifle retailing in Melbourne, Australia?
Compare it against the Savage impulse
The floating pic rail bothers me. Will be interested to let all my mates buy one first 😂🤣
bought the brx in 300win, have now 350-380 rounds through it, never had any issue with the floating rail.
Faster but more safety concerns. Why beretta put all kinds safety modes on this. The loading of a round, the carrying of round in chamber, bumping the bolt. Is it a new take on old bolt-action but is it needed and worth the cost. No
Magazine doesn’t rattle?
Nice gun, I will stick with my Sako....
It’s a novel take on an idea coming out in the 1890s. It’s interesting, but altogether too expensive for most people seeking to put meat on the table. For my money, I think I’ll stick to my Model 70 Winchester Classic. It just makes more sense.
Savage impulse vs
Beretta Brx1 vs
Blaser R93 vs
Blaser R8 vs
Mauser 96 vs
Heym SR-30 vs
Merkel vs
RX Helix vs
Anschutz 1727 vs
Roessler Titan 16 vs
Browning Maral.
Do you find these better tan a pump action as far as follow up shots are concerned?
About the same really it’s what you practice with that makes the difference in my view
Will you buy it Ozzie ?
Bună seara cât costă o armă cal 30x06?
I think that cycles quicker than my BLR.
Verygood i from thailand พัทลุง
Is it better than a browning Maral ?
Yeah ditto. Good question.
That gun desparately needs to be offered in .243 win and .270win
It does come in 243.
Which is better, BRX1 or Browning BLR?
Why not both lol
Can some body tell me how many Meters is 100 yards? some how I don’t get it.
100 yards is 91 meters.
No faults? Yes the standard stock I would love to see that in another stock like the oryx chassis or similar the other fault muscle climb
Got a problem with the grams and pounds on the trigger there bud😂
This is a high performance rifle, so I guess you're feeding it with bad ammo relative to the twist on the barrel. Or, you just had a bad day at the range 😁 Basically, I've seen groupings hole in hole @ 100 meters with this rifle. Otherwise, great review 😎
So what shits i's me is you've obviously cited the rifle in first what ammo did you use first you had to get on paper before you started
The rail is silly high.
Why do think if this fails the shooter is screwed.
Price is a bit steep
Why no spring assist though? :/
When you order a Blaser R8 from Wish
Does BRX stand for “Blaser Rip off”?
More like "Blaser is a rip off"!
Better than the Blaser R8?
And less than half the price..
this gun compete with roessler titan 16 not blaser r8/chapuis rolls.
