Anschutz 1727 APR Competition Rifle

Anschutz 1727 APR Competition Rifle – Precision. Speed. Reliability.

The Ultimate Straight-Pull Rimfire PRS Rifle

Caliber: .22 LR

Introducing the Anschutz 1727 APR, a purpose-built, factory-division-ready PRS competition rifle. Leveraging the legendary Anschutz biathlon straight-pull action and developed in collaboration with top PRS shooters, the 1727 APR delivers world-class precision, speed, and ergonomics for serious competitors.

Unmatched Speed – 1727 APR Straight-Pull Action

The super-fast straight-line bolt system, proven in Olympic biathlon competition, has been redesigned for PRS applications. Featuring the new ANSCHÜTZ Gas Paddle (AGP) for smoother operation and rapid cycling, this action allows for lightning-fast follow-up shots without compromising precision. The straight-pull system dramatically reduces shooter fatigue and saves valuable seconds in match settings.

Heavyweight Steel Competition Forend

The ultra-stiff 3.5 kg steel competition forend ensures maximum stability with zero flex or vibration. Coated with QPQ for maximum durability and corrosion resistance, this forend includes:

• Integrated forend wings with ATIP (Anschütz Thumb Index Positioning) slots for consistent hand placement.

• ARCA-Swiss rail at the 6 o’clock position for full accessory compatibility.

AICS-Style Magazine System – Built for Reliability

The Anschutz-designed AICS-style small caliber magazines mirror the handling of centerfire mags while optimized for rimfire use. They include:

• Optional magazine weights (AMDL) to match centerfire setups.

• Reliable drop-free ejection, even in extreme conditions.

• Tactile full-load indicator (AFMI) to check magazine status on the fly.

Match-Grade Anschutz x-Heavy Bull Barrel

The 28mm bull barrel is precision-engineered for elite-level performance. Features include:

• Rigid barrel anchoring for consistent shot placement.

• M18x1 threaded muzzle (SAKO pattern compatible) for muzzle device or suppressor use.

• Built for extreme endurance and maximum repeatability.

Smart Magazine Integration and Tuning

Feed with confidence through a funnel-guided magazine well. The adjustable magazine tensioning system (AMT) lets users fine-tune feed and ejection to match their ammunition and personal preferences. The mag can be ejected easily – no need for two hands.

Ergonomic, Modular Stock System

The chassis stock has been redesigned for both form and function:

• Adjustable length of pull (50mm) via V-Rail system.

• Optional rear bag rider for benchrest and PRS support.

• AHEX-inspired buttstock design for consistent shoulder fit.

Adjustable Floating Cheekpiece – Tool-Free Tuning

The floating AFC cheekpiece adjusts vertically and horizontally with just one screw. Its cutout design allows full access to the barrel beneath, making maintenance easier without removing the cheekpiece.
