Merkel Helix Speedster 30-06 Gewi m sight, SW, 51 LL

HELIX Speedster

The HELIX Speedster with its revolutionary synthetic stock takes entirely new paths for a hunting rifle: The open-top OmegaGrip combines two classic stock principles into an ergonomic and fast new development. The good ergonomics of classic hole stock constructions reveal their weaknesses only during reloading: When quickly cycling the action, the thumb's entry and exit from the stock hole is cumbersome.

With the HELIX Speedster and the new SpeedStock, this problem is eliminated. The thumb glides like on rails along the ergonomic stock shape into shooting position in the OmegaGrip and back out when cycling the action. The automatically height-adjustable stock comb can be adjusted at the push of a button – an important advantage for precise shooting with a scope.
