Yeah, FX copied Snowpeak, the company that patented the air over barrel technology years before FX introduced their version. BTW, FX had to engineer a far more complex, expensive, and perhaps, less reliable system to get around the Snowpeak patent.

The revised bolt and bolt position make cocking faster and smoother, with a shorter throw, than a lever action. I own the 250z and even though a right side bolt isn't ideal for a lefty shooter like me and the bolt is positioned a little too far back, I still prefer it to my right side lever...

A similar thing happened to me. I'd placed the DiscoveryOpt XED 6-36×56 scope in the website shopping cart to see if a 15% coupon code was still valid and clicked "Buy" instead of "Back" - easy mistake to make, right? lol Now I have a premium scope but no premium rifle to go with it. I need to...
