The New Lithgow Arms LA101 CrossOver

Winchester Australia and Thales have joined their forces and imagination into the LA101 CrossOver Bolt-action rifle. The rifle will appear in various calibers, such as .22 LR, .22 WMR and .17 HMR, also having centerfire variants chambered in .223 Rem and .308 Win. 

 

Despite the fact that it is available in a variety of cartridges, it has two .22 models which are very helpful to young hunters. What is more, the new Winchester/Thales rifle has the stock and trigger guard in one piece and is very good at flat shooting. It can be put on the ground or on a bench or a tripod, while the pistol grip is steeply angled.

 

Although the rifle is announced to be found in stores in the last quarter of the current year in Australia, there is no doubt about the fact that it will reach the US shortly afterwards. This tactical rifle will probably cross the ocean sooner than expected.

 

The LA101 CrossOver is the first step in reinventing Lithgow Arms, such a lasting producer. Bringing innovation in a company which started its production during WWI can only be a beneficial thing.
