Rokslide mentioned the video was taken down. I cannot find it. Maybe they wanted to release it later on. ?
Or it was the Russians!

I'm hoping it's not fake news. I'll say Russians or the CCP.

Your assuming the balls are in a point configuration...
I am ASSUMING they are going into spherical indentations...
There are cannon and rifle barrels using this principal going back 100+ years
As well as industrial presses....
Great idea
You know they HAD TO TEST on 120kpsi to 200kpsi proof loads to market it.....
Right up there with Swiss k30 and hk g1/91 for ingenuity!!!

Accumark stock works well for me even in a 8lb 338 mag shooting HOT 250 GRAIN NOSLER PARTITIONS...

Omg....not sure which point is more wrong.

Blaser uses a collet like lockup it appears, which increases surface area to take the thrust. If you zoom in on the bolt, you can see it.
The Savage video doesn't get into detail, but they need to.
A spherical groove and a spherical lug decreases contact area. So, it cannot possibly look like a ball in a raceway. There is more to see once this gets out to the public. Their testing must have been good. I just need to see it.

There's not much on the Savage website.

I am certain they did not perform any failure testing, duty cycles, idiot proof cycles, let's see if we can blow it up cycles, environmental condition cycles because their engineering just throws stuff out there. Really? No one on this site has actually even held one and it is being ridiculed for the engineering based off an animated PR video? Compounds first came out, ugly, not the way a bow should look so on. Innovation and evolution are hand in hand and we need this kind of thinking to keep pushing the envelope for better performance. Custom rifle makers will look at this and I will bet there will be even more innovation to this design by them which will benefit us all. Blaser has been around for maybe 50 years or so? Not like a straight pull is an off the wall concept.
As for beauty, if its not a craftsman hand checkered detailed select walnut stock with a high luster blued barrel every thing else is ugly but I still love to shoot them!

My guess is that this design is either licensed or that the patents for Heym's (Garmany) SR30 straight pull design have expired because this looks like almost exactly like how an SR30 works.
