was only one- i have a atr 100, its very reliable for the price, its accurate, feeds well,. not for shooting 200 a day, but for hunting or some target practice its fine
I already chimed in on post #8 but would like to add that given the newer Mossberg ATR has an adjustable trigger, fluted barrel, and is available in a marine coat finish I might just pick up another one "if the price is right".
PS here's a picture of my Mossy ATR 30-06 and it will shoot 1" with the right ammo.
The old ones made me gag a little but the new ones look pretty slick. I would try one if the price was right. I am kinna small and don't like bulky plastic stocks + the finnish reminded me of my REM 700 ADL which SUCKED! I just hope the fixed that whole exploding bolt issue. I still don't think they will outshoot a good old savage or XS7 but who knows they might like my handloads.
FYI: They have now weld the bolt body to the bolt handle assembly they use to braize them...
There always seems to be a lot of Mossberg ATR bashing in threads. Seems that everyone has forgotten about Remington bolt handles falling off and mulitple wrongful death lawsuits for a saftey that sometimes isn't a saftey.
I cannot be sure but there was a bolt incident that went to court as far as I can tell Cotterill v. O.F. Mossberg & Sons, Inc. centered around wheter or not the assembly pin was broken during operation or possibly even removed and by Cotterill earlier during disassembly of the bolt. If you haven't read about this please be sure you do so at the link provided below. You can keep your opinion if you like but be sure you check your facts before spreading opinions as fact.
Certainly a missing pin or broken one could have dire consequences same for a seperation of the bolt handle from the bolt body.
If you haven't read about the incident for yourself please read pages 2-4 of 16 at this link:
I don't buy Remingtons any more either Tikkas, Savages and the new Model 70 are my cup of tea. MUCH better quality control, I never had the 1st glitch with any of those rifles. Remington used to be the best thing out there, but have fallen off bigtime (owned 4 of them over the years). The only remmy I still own is an oldschool 552 Speedmaster.
I don't know if that whole story had a single shread of truth to it, I am sure there is some moron out there that blew up a Browning in his face too. I won't judge the whole company off of one questionable incident. I did not buy one because the finnish was really cheap the stock felt worse then the budget savages. I am sure they can be real shooters, almost all modern rifles will handle one or two factory rounds really well.
