The Sig Cross Magnum in .300 Win Mag was released a few months back and I haven't seen much regarding the gun other than a handful of youtube reviews. Has anyone here purchased one or put in some decent triggertime behind one? I've owned a .308 Cross for a few years now and will probably buy the Magnum later this year before WA elk season kicks off, I'd love to hear some feedback in the meantime.

I was excited about it but they don’t seem to be putting much effort in it. Only one chambering and barrel length. A little heavier than I had hoped.

As long as it's not as heavy as the PRS Cross rifles I'll be OK. Hopefully Proof Research will crank out barrels for it like they do the regular Cross rifles. |

I have been looking since they were announced and haven’t seen one in stock anywhere, haven’t seen a review from any of the YouTube guys. I did see a CF barrel model with a shorter handguard in a video from NRA show but didn’t see a price and it’s not on the site yet. |

I just read the meateater article about it, and have begun lusting over it as well. I think it's on my short list, but I'd love to find some more information. Looks like everything I want in a dual purpose hunting/tactical rifle. All things considered, the weight looks about perfect for a lighter tactical rifle, even if it is a bit heavy for a hubting rifle.

Is 8.5lbs really that heavy for a 24" .300WM though?

For another $200 you can get a proof research rifle that weighs 2 pounds less and comes with a half moa guarantee.
I'm excited by the idea of the Sawtooth but the pricing and weight is underwhelming. If they could do a short action in 277 Fury with the carbon barrel I'd pay a little more for that. But it still wouldn't be a $3k rifle. |

But it still wouldn't be a $3k rifle. Yeah I wouldn’t pay that much I’m far under MSRP and those proof rifles are much more than $200 more. From what I see it’s at least $800 more from a base model. |

I finally saw one in person. I really wanted one, but I'm not sure at that price.

Sweet.
But now I see there's a Cross in .277 Fury. It looks like I can get *almost* 300WM performance from a very light and handy rifle. https://www.sigsauer.com/accubond-277-sig-fury-hybrid.html I'd want to use it for elk. Maybe it's a dumb idea. |

I've had the same idea. Much lighter than the Proof magnum versions. Sig has a premium load available that pushes a 150 grain bullet at just shy of 3000fps from the 20" barrel. Sounds like it would be a great mountain hunting rifle. I search bi-weekly for load data. If it ends up being reloader friendly I have several hunting rifles it could replace. |

I finally got to play with a Cross Magnum in .300 Win Mag, and a Sawtooth in 7mm PRC side-by-side yesterday at a store by Richmond. Im gonna go with the 300PRC version, but at only $200 more ($2499 and $2699 respectively, probably cheaper online), getting the sawtooth version is a no brainer. |

Yes absolutely especially when additional Cost of the barrel alone is much more than the $200 price difference. |

I'd buy the barrel and conversion kit to .277 for my .308 cross if they release it, ever.
