Sauer 505 Iconic Elegance Gold Edition

Refined surface and gold lettering – behind the beautiful facade of the Sauer Iconic Elegance Gold Edition 505 lies a reliable hunting rifle with the new Iconic stock in the noble wood class 7.Two years after the introduction of the 505 bolt-action rifle, Sauer presents the 505 Iconic stock. It is made of walnut wood and is designed to be as ergonomic as it is extravagant. As a module of the Iconic Elegance Gold Edition, it features the noble stock wood class 7. As the name suggests, this equipment package primarily emphasizes the exclusive beauty of the rifle. Here are the highlights at a glance:

The caliber can be chosen from a wide range of mini, standard, and magnum caliber groups, and the barrel length is also freely selectable depending on the caliber.

The Stock
The new two-part Iconic stock made of walnut – here in the noble class 7 – from J.P. Sauer & Sohn is finished with a polished surface and impresses with its excellent ergonomic design and aesthetics. The steep pistol grip with a pronounced palmswell and the optimally sized thumb hole allow the shooting hand and arm to remain in a relaxed state, enabling an intuitive movement for the shot. The straight stock back transitions into a curved, flowing line into the cheek piece. The fore-end also has a slightly curved shape, which is accentuated by a drop nose made of black ebony. The checkered texture on the grip surfaces feels pleasantly tactile in the hands. The length of pull is 365 mm, capped with a 15 mm thick recoil-absorbing pad in black.

The System
The solid steel housing of the 505 allows for a smooth chambering and quiet cycling due to reduced friction. The surfaces of the housing are coated with a DLC coating. DLC stands for "Diamond Like Carbon." This type of coating is very environmentally friendly and biocompatible compared to galvanic coatings. The coated components are particularly resistant and very smooth due to a thin-film coating process. The gold lettering of the rifle stands out elegantly against the black surface. The hand tension of the 505 is comfortable and safe. A longer tensioning path requires even less effort. With a light thumb pressure, the rifle is cocked just before the shot and then released to perform the discharge. The Sauer 505 features a Quattro trigger with four weight settings. Thus, the trigger breaks crystal clear at the precisely individually suitable trigger weight. Settings of 350 g, 750 g, 1,000 g, and 1,250 g are possible. The adjustment is made with the Sauer universal key while the fore-end is removed. This version also features an additional aluminum trigger guard. The chamber handle ball is knurled and bears the Sauer logo. The magazine with a lightweight metal base can be chosen between a capacity of 2 or 3 shots and 5 shots, depending on the caliber.

The Chamber with Sun Cut
A special optical highlight of the 505 Iconic Elegance Gold Edition is the sun cut with which the chamber has been refined. In this process, the surface is worked with a grinding wheel in such a way that a sunbeam-like iridescence radiates from the center. When the treated surface is moved, the angle of incidence of the light changes, and the ground area appears to rotate in a circle.

The Barrel
The Sauer 505 bolt-action rifle is equipped with a cold-hammered barrel. This allows for highly precise shots. The muzzle is fitted with an M15x1 thread for a suppressor. It has a smooth profile without sights, and its length can be optionally between 42 cm and 62 cm, partly depending on the caliber. The barrel of the Sauer 505 Elegance Gold Edition is effectively protected against corrosion by a DLC coating, just like its other steel surfaces. It is also compatible with the Sauer 404 bolt-action rifle, allowing it to be used with the older rifle.
