Overview
The Feinwerkbau 2800 Alu is a single-shot bolt-action .22 LR smallbore match rifle built for ISSF 50m three-position and prone competition. Introduced around 2018 as successor to the Model 2700, it pairs a fully anodized-aluminium precision stock with a 22mm match barrel, an adjustable two-stage trigger breaking at 60 to 150 grams, aperture diopter sights and one of the shortest bolt throws in the match-rifle class. The anatomical stock offers extensive adjustment of cheekpiece, buttplate, length of pull and interchangeable palm grips for left- and right-handed shooters.
