RPA2000

I am after some advice regarding RPA2000 rifles for TR (Target Rifle) class shooting. Good/bad? Any known issues to look out for?

Looks like production stopped in 2016.

Thanks!

The RPA is on par with the Barnard actions great for TR it is what they were designed for
a friend of mine shot one for years, The actions were about $1200 to $1600 in the 1990's
You can't go wrong if the price is right only the barrel will wear out.

I still have mine- built as a TR rifle which shot very well but later converted to an FTR rig which my son lost interest in. The CG-2000 RPA was the predecessor of the HHE Millennium built right here in Hawkes Bay. Very solid actions with short lock time due to the Belleville washer stack instead of a coil spring.

The main thing to check is the lugs aren't badly galled. The lugs need to be kept greased to prevent this happening.
