hey guys im new to the forum but i bought one yesterday in .300 win mag. and its a great shooter. havent had one problem out of it and it shoots around .75 at 100 yards with the cheap federal 180s from walmart. $15.00 a box. i love the gun. it has a great feel to it and the recoil is not bad at all, even in the .300 win mag. but i would deffinatly reccommend the gun to anyone one i have had alot of high end bolt guns and this one is not far off at all. i got mine at whittakers guns in owensboro, ky out the door for $419.00 and there is a $50 mail-in rebate. i hope this helps .. thanks
Funny this thread should be started. I'm looking at the same rifle (sort-of) in .308 and am glad to see what I've read so far. I think I want the Venture Predator though. I like the full camo all over, just personal preference though!
Keep up the reviews, I'm anxious to read more.
Don't own a Venture but have handled one in the local gun shop. Seems like a lot of gun for the money. I was looking for a 308 Win and was comparing different brands. In the end I wound up getting a T/C Icon in 308 as it was only $399(after rebate of course).
On a side note, my original Icon had a defect from the factory and would not eject fired cases properly. The rifle was replaced by T/C in a timely manner and I was happy with their customer service.
I shot over to Dicks to day and did take a look at the t/c venture
I am not a fan on plastic stocks but overall it did catch my eye.
I was unlucky they did not have the cal. I was looking for they list them on sale for 439.00 plus tax regular price 479.00
I then would have the t/c rebate of 50.00 so it would be around the 399.00 mark
I did like the LOP 13 1/2" gun balanced o.k.

Im from Owensboro. He cant be beat anywhere, period. I picked up a Ruger Hawkeye stainless 270 a month ago there for $150 less than anywhere I have checked.

Isn't that cool?! Ruger Hawkeye Stainless .270... What was the title of this thread? Something about a Thompson Center Venture?! Sorry, but I just don't see where the Ruger fits in when someone was talking about a TC Venture. That and the gentleman who started the thread said he's looking for reviews about the TC Venture from people who actually own one. Comparing a TC to a Ruger is like comparing apples to oranges.
I have a Venture in .243 and absolutely love it. It has a great trigger and will shoot under 1 moa with all 3 factory loads I've shot through it. If you like the wood stocks better, the Icon can also be had for very little extra money after the rebates.
