The Varmint Snipers
Gun Nuts dote on accuracy, and the more extreme the better. That's the charm of varmint rifles - a good one will shoot dime-size groups at 100 yards, which will make your liver quiver. They are essential to the collection.


The Warlord: Thompson/Center’s first-ever bolt action has now reached a peak of accuracy and tactical sophistication.
Only four years have passed since the unveiling of Thompson/Center’s first bolt action, the Icon. After a century and a quarter of development, there is very little genuinely new about a turnbolt action. Certainly, this applies to the Icon, but T/C was able to utilize its expertise in close-tolerance machining to create a rigid, accuracy-enhancing action, and T/C was able to tap into, if not 125 years of development, at least recent developments in determining the features shooters were looking for..

Match-grade accuracy in a tactical
package is the new name of
the game from T/C’s
Custom Shop.
T/C and Hornady have teamed up to create the 30TC, a cartridge designed to work perfectly with T/C’s ICON. It’s a .30 caliber medium action cartridge with the velocity and knock-down power of a 30-06 cartridge.
Specifically designed for Thompson/Center’s ICON bolt action rifle, the 30TC is quite possibly the most revolutionary cartridge ever developed. Its optimized case geometry and advanced propellants exceed 30-06 ballistics performance in a medium action case. The 30TC requires 25% less powder than a 30-06 cartridge resulting in 15% less recoil.
30TC is available in ICON and Venture.
