Got my Impulse Predator. Interesting gun. The bolt take a lot of work to get it to unlock. I've heard in a review that it breaks in after some use and gets easier. Those of you who have these rifles, have you found that to be the case?
I'm still waiting on my optics, so I've not actually fired it. It's the .308 version.
Answering my own question...yes, it does get smoother. For me, having the bolt handle canted a bit forward when in battery is easier on my hands. Some suggest keeping the bolt handle vertical when forward to bring the finger closer to the trigger, but I found it less comfortable overall.
Has anyone disassembled the bolt body and polished all the surfaces that rub? Might be interesting. It looks like the bolt head with all the ball bearings would be an advanced project. Not sure that's a place I want to go.
