darkgael - please tell us more about the Anschutz

Well….ok. It is not really a hunting rifle, though it could easily be used for that purpose. It is designed to be carried on one’s back over snow covered trails and to function reliably in bad, cold, weather.
It comes with five magazines. It has an accessory rail which allows attachment of a sling and a quick off-on harness.
It does not come with a rear sight. Ya gotta buy that. $$$$ (although no one says that you have to buy an Anschutz rear.) It slides on to a dovetail. I had a scope mounted on mine for a while, for hunting. High rings were a must as the Front sight is integral.
The straight pull bolt is very smooth and reliable. It functions with, literally, a flick of the wrist. It is a very robust firearm.
The downside is cost. Current prices are more than double what I paid back in 2022. (Current = $4500 - $5600 + the rear sight)
