Anyone have any experience with these rifles? Local shop has one with a 7mm mag and 30-06 barrel. Barrels don't look too common online and if you find one they're expensive. Weird safety as well.
Shop one seems priced well from what I'm seeing.

Nice rifles, safety is kind of a pain but had one years ago with 223 30-06 barrels, both shot well, sold to a friend of mine and wished I hadn’t , recently found another in 308 at a local shop and bought it, picked up a 223 & 22-250 barrel for it. No new barrels made for it anymore since the fire at T/C so what you find on the used market is all there is. Gunbroker and eBay have them occasionally and you just have to watch for them and grab em when you can. Mark

Have had a few. Sold them because of my Blaser K95.
They're great guns and barrels aren't too hard to find.
Had one with a crappy trigger though. Does this one have a set trigger?
Can be super accurate especially if you handload.
If you get the 7mm be sure you have a "magnum" receiver.
Some may say you don't need it but that's why they started making them.
"Magnum" will be stamped on the bottom of the receiver itself.
I can't help with current pricing.

I always wanted the TCR-83 in a Hornet.
