t/c venture predator
 

Anybody have one of these? I see them at my local dicks for $500. Its the combo with the scope im sure the scope is cheap. Also they have a $75 rebate so it woukd be 425..any input/reviews appreciated

i dont own one but the cabelas in hamberg pa had a bout 40 used tc bolt actions on martin luther king day. that was a bad sign all looked in like new condition. plus they have a recall on them right now. the dicks by me has one for $599 they have a remington varmint for $550 that i feel is a better rifle. they also have a plain tc venture with black stock for $400.

The TC Venture stainless with weather shield and the brand new Ruger American in Stainless are the best entry level boltguns in the market right now IMO !

So you think the venture predator is worth it?

YES - Hard to find a production rifle with all those "features" at that price !!!

the people at cabelas said since the recall came out poeples been selling the tc rifle nonestop in pa they had about 40 used ones on their racks. seeing all those used rifles at one place turned me off from seriously looking at the tc rifle platform. a lot of them looked like they never been shot.

come on guys, there has to be more people that have one of these rifles

Heck, maybe I'll find some good deals on some TC rifles.

I'm guessing that this is the recall your referring too... It seems like an easy fix... Heck I have a friend that has a Rem 722 that was made in the 50's that had a safety recall... Those rifles couldn't be unloaded with the safety in the on position.

I have one in a 338win mag that I won. After I got it back because of the recall I put a nikon buckmaster on it and it have it shooting between a 3/4" and 1" group consistantly now. I doubt I would buy one if I had to pay for it when you can get a weatherby Vangaurd for a little more.

No not that recall it is a new one.
