ADVANCED PRIMARY EXTRACTION
Primary extraction is an extremely underdeveloped but crucial stage of cycling your firearm. Primary extraction is one of the major causes of rifle malfunctions yet the design has not changed significantly in a century. In a conventional bolt action rifle, the primary extraction is conducted in approximately the last 5 degrees of bolt lift. This creates considerable shock loading on your extractor and brass to the point where the extractor can let go and drop the rifle cartridge.
Project X Hunter uses an advanced primary extraction system wherein primary extraction is achieved throughout the entire 90 degrees of bolt lift. This spreads the load over a range 18x greater than conventional design in turn reducing the stress on the fired brass and your extractor while increasing reliability.
WEIGHT CONSCIOUS DESIGN
PROJECT X Hunter is not only a blend of features but also of materials. We are able to optimize the weight of each component based on it's application with materials such as:
4140 alloy steel
Chrome silicon
7075 T6 aluminum
Carbon fiber composites
This has given us the ability to optimize each portion of the action and as a result, we are able to construct the heart of your rifle considerably lighter, stronger, and with far greater optimized features.
