THE DETAIL

PROUDLY DESIGNED & MANUFACTURED IN NEW ZEALAND

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.

The HYBRID 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.

MULTI CALIBER CAPABLE

One of the most amazing features of The HYBRID is that it is completely modular while extremely user friendly. The barrels are easily removed and replaced - this is done with simple tools that are provided, and without the requirement to check head space with gauges.

The bolt heads are easily swapped out, again with basic tools. This gives you, the end user, the ability to use one rifle for all applications. You can choose to set the rifle up specifically for PRS with a heavy steel barrel and then do a complete caliber change with a carbon wrapped barrel for hunting the hills all in a matter of minutes and in the field or at home.

CONSISTENT RETURN TO ZERO

The HYBRID will consistently return to zero within 1 MOA after a barrel has been removed or installed into the action. This means the rifle can be stored broken down in the supplied compact robust carry case. The hard case is also considerably smaller than conventional hard rifle cases meaning it travels a lot better in the truck, on the ATV and in the plane.

BIPOD

Comprehensive studies have highlighted the benefits surrounding the “triangle of stability” when applied to bipods within the shooting industry. This data has led to a number of new bipods on the market with wider stances, ensuring that your barrel sits inside the triangle created when fitting a bipod, rather than on the peak. The increased rigidity and stability of this style of bipod makes for a considerable advantage when making the long shots really count.

This being said, none do it better than the HYBRID BIPOD designed by Hardy Rifle. The HYBRID BIPOD takes full advantage of the “triangle of stability” and maximises the performance with features such as:
