The new aptly named Venture is a entry level priced rifle that guarantees 1 MOA accuracy!

Thompson/Center introduces the New T/C Venture, the most value-packed bolt action rifle available on the market today. Designed to deliver top end quality and accuracy at an entry level price, the Thompson/Center Venture offers a 5R rifled match grade barrel and match grade crown, adjustable precision trigger and a classic style composite stock that puts it in a class all its own. A rugged, reliable tool for the outdoorsman, the T/C Venture features T/C’s renowned innovation, craftsmanship and cutting edge barrel technology. Guaranteed to deliver Minute of angle accuracy… 1 inch groups at 100 yards.

It features:

* 60 degree bolt lift
* Adjustable trigger
* 5R match-grade rifling
* Long action.

It will be available chambered in .270 Win., 7mm Rem. Mag., 30-06, .300 Win Mag.

Although I have yet to see pricing for this rifle, if it indeed is entry level pricing with a 1 MOA guarantee this will be one popular rifle and will give Weatherby with their 1.5 MOA guarantee a run for their money (no doubt being popular with folks who cannot shoot MOA anyway).

I expect a short action will be announced within a year.
