Thompson Center Arms make use of Controlled Round Feed?

I don't seem to be able to find this readily in a search so I am asking ...

Do the rifles made by Thompson Center Arms make use of Controlled Round Feed (CRF) or push?

TC uses PF on all the rifles I've seen, unless they've come out with something recent that I've not seen. Ruger, Winchester and Kimber are the only USA made CRF rifles to my knowledge.

I don't know if I would call Ruger a real CRF. I have owned centerfire Rugers that would pop the round up well before the extractor had control of the rim. At that point the gun is operating as a PF, even though the rim may eventually slide up under the extractor during the push if the operator doesn't stop or reverse the bolt motion.

Rugers made since 1992 are CRF. Older rifles were PF with a claw extractor

Mine were all made in the last 5 years or so.

You need to have a gunsmith look at it or send it back to Ruger.

Rugers marked as model 77 only or push feed. Model 77 MKII or control feed.
