The namesake of a brilliant thinker of ancient Greece who proclaimed that he could move the world given a lever and a place to stand, American Rifle Company’s Archimedes bolt action uses the same principle to establish a new standard. The pivoting bolt handle of the Archimedes action gives you the mechanical advantage to extract even the most stubbornly stuck cases. Your ability to extract cartridges without the use of tools is now limited only by the strength of the case rim. And since bolt rotation is no longer necessary for case extraction, 75 degrees of bolt rotation is entirely dedicated to cocking, making cycling the bolt as easy as it gets.
