Looks like a great rifle ....that bolt is so clinical....the polymer mag looks very easy to load especially with light gloves or cold fingers. The locking mech on it is a good idea. It didn't seem too fussy with ammo too. Great review as per Chris 👍🏻
Sure it’s a great rifle. It’s a German product.
Just like the hybrid or electric cars, straight pull action rifles are here to stay as the future of hunting guns (not assault rifles). They may not have the charm of a double barrel rifle or the tradition of the rotating bolt, but we will see more and more manufacturers offering new models. With the Jaeger NXT C. G. Haenel enters this club as the 14th manufacturer of this type of center fire ammo rifle on the market today:
Rößler/Rowa (or Roessler) - Austria
Strasser - Austria
Browning - Belgium
Lynx - Finland
Chapuis - France
Verney-Carron - France
Blaser - Germany
Heym - Germany
Merkel - Germany
Steel Action - Germany
Beretta - Italy
ADAR Ladoga - Russia
Savage - USA
and now
Haenel - Germany
Congratulations and greetings from Brazil.
Don't think they'll ever become the standard like turn bolts are. Far too expensive to produce, thus being too expensive to sell. and I don't see the advantage. If I want a faster follow up shot for boar hunting I'll just use my AR-10 type semi automatic.
But if those can't be legally acquired in your area I guess that's where the straight Pull comes in
I like the mag catch with simple locking arrangement. Cocking/decocking is also nice and simple. I gather that a few hunters have been caught out by the Blaser system and consequently failed to take an animal.
What military application,in sniper rifles
Awesome quality video to the top ,no extra BS a good clean solid I like it ,👍an can't wait for more reviews.
That is a nice piece of kit. Great review as always Chris, thanks.
We can finally get them in the US, looks awesome
Wait we can? Where at?
Just orderd one as my first hunting rifle📯
Nice looking rife. Love the iron sights & double stack mag, it is a shame it's not ambidextrous and multiple caliber with barrel change.
I rather like this NXT rifle from Haenel. I think I will buy one in 9,3x62 for next years Moose sesong. I all ready have a Steel-Action in 338 win mag and that is an exelent rifle but I think that this one is that also. At least I hope so:) Nice rewiev, thanx!
Seriously considering to get this one for myself 😉, thanks Chris-good review!
Hi Chris, good to see you at the NEC, the other week. I had a look at the NXT myself. Other than the limited calibre offering (at the moment) my only concern was the actuation of the safety / cocker system. Is there any risk of inadvertently, pushing the bolt handle forward from the safe/decocked position to the fire position, whilst carrying the rifle?
The catch on the back of the shroud will also lock the bolt 'de-cocked' for further confidence, I forgot to mention it on the video but markings are there
A great straight pull rifle with damn accuracy.
Haenel realy makes nice guns. Nice video as usual. 💪🏻👍🏻
It's such beautiful looking rifle, shame I can't get it here in the states
Nice 👍
At 6'4" L.O.P. can be an issue, glad someone gives an option to have a stock you can reduce, easier than extending.
Thanks..
My friend, also a 'Dave', at 6'3" said it was a delightful break from the norm of short stocked US rifles
Looks really nice. Initially I was impressed with the Beretta BRX1 but after this the Haenel looks quite superior - both in performance and appearance. Might be my next hunting rifle someday....
Great review!
it's a big step up from the Beretta and no bolt/face interface issues :-)
@@chrisparkin431 Speaking of new rifles, the Sako model 100 looks promising too. Any chance there's a review coming?
Cheers!
@@BiffKong none at all sadly, my honesty for my viewers has seen me denied any further Sako/Tikka/Beretta reviews😂
@@chrisparkin431 That's unfortunate, but I guess honesty comes with a price! 😂
Very nice rifle. Good to see and hear some action without a mod.
I hope the gong went back together 🤣😬💥💥👍
The older gongs with M8 D-shackles have a tendency to vibrate their threads loose, I'm steadily swapping them all to M10 shackles as they fly away😂
Very good accuracy
I really like the look of that! Great review and really nice to see a rifle tested in something other than 308 👍
Such a cool action. Idk if it beats the K31 in cool factor though.
Thanks for the nice review. Greetings from Germany
Seems to like the 165 grain which is typical of 30-06 rifles
Looks great, and good review.
Nice review. Lovely rifle
If it gets magnum calibers and an adjustable cheek piece, i'm definitely getting one.
SOLD!!!!
Very good review!
Hi Chris! I saw the gun in a store, I wanted to buy one but it seems to me that the cocking/decocking system works very hard, is there any chance to make it work more easily?
I have noticed this in several reviews, when you reload the weapon sometimes remains in the decocked position, the reloading movement must be done with strength..
Is there a safety issue if you just use the bolt handle as a safety? If you carry on your back, the bolt handle can accidently move? Can you look it with a traditional safety?
You can lock it
As an American I can sure say European rifles are far more interesting and well cool
And us rifles are no where near the quality of the us rifles
This or Mauser M12, Sauer 101? Yes, its very different. But quality?
I like the M12 the most personally
Here in Denmark I can get a Schultz Larsen Classic for appox the same as the Haenel, Mauser M12 and Sauer 101.
Had all of them in my hand’s today. The S&L is miles ahead and the bolt is so smooth. Everything in steel and even the magazines in steel. It was a no brainer. Went with the S&L in synthetic and I couldn’t be happier
Hi, great review as ever 👍
Couple of tech questions for you.... How's the barrel attached - is it threaded or sweated?
What's the recoil lug arrangement?
Thanks
threaded, UA-cam tend to de-monetise videos that show too much technical detail. The recoil lug is sandwiched on tenon between barrel and receiver
@@chrisparkin431 Understood. Thanks for the reply 👌
This Rifle in 6.8mm Western please.
ни чего не понятно,но мне понравилось.
👍
Isnt there also DS version with more compact stock?
This is a 6 month old video so there may well be alternate versions now, Henel's website is your best source on that one
And what happens when u have a sticky round. Can I still open the bolt. Leverage looks a bit weak.
It's a rotating camming bolt the same as a regular turnbolt gun, watch the video where the gear mechanisms are shown
@@chrisparkin431 You will lose leverage in that transmission.
@@CandidZulu leverage is transitioned through 90 degrees as the inner bolt and lugs rotate the same as a turn bolt rifle
@@chrisparkin431 And where does the primary extraction come from?
@@CandidZulu the bolt lugs, just like any other turn bolt
Bună seara cât costă o armă?
Do they make it for life handers
not yet
Bună dimineața cît costă o armă și ce magnificație are lunetă?
Muito lindo cual e o calibre dessa arma canto custa essa beleza Brasil
Where is it available in the uk?
Ask your local gunshop to get you one
Any word about left hand models, what about price . Thanks in advance
No, but id think unlikely. i can only review what Im sent. I cant quote prices, UA-cam gets mad at me. I don't know exact price as I Dont sell them, you need to contact your local dealer as the recommended retail prices i get told are usually inflated from what you really pay
I too was winding about us lefty's. I was hoping the bolt could be switched over like the Savage impulse.
Bună seara cît costă o armă și de cine-i fabricată?
is that a mauser m18 magazine?
No, but works similarly with twin columns and top load so equally desirable and effective
how much?
Ask a shop
Is it feels better than bolt action?
It's just different, not better or worse. There are some horrible bolt action rifles and equally awful straight pull actions out there, I liked this one
@@chrisparkin431 or is it more faster to reload than bolt action or same performance?
Bună ziua cît costă o armă?
Fiat ne kadar
Un fucile così in quel calibro neanche in regalo lo vorrei !!!!!
👍🇸🇪❤️
✌😉👍
No Thanks.
That looks god awful!
Its the worst rifle ive ever encountered it can be safe but the system the look is absolutly bollocks the cocking with the charging handle is so stupid youre better off with a blaser r8 just 1k more for faster more acurate simple more versitile handling
Oh I have had some right stinkers that never even made it as far as getting a scope mounted. I quite like this Haenel but it's not to everyone's taste.
