Thompson/Center Venture
Back in 2009 when T/C first introduced the Venture rifle, their intent was to get a lightweight T/C rifle with desirable features in the hands of hunters for less money than the company’s then-flagship, Icon rifle. It was good timing, because depending on whom you ask, 2009 was also either the beginning, middle or the end of the Great Recession. Money was tight. Americans were hit hard financially; yet, the political atmosphere was causing an increase in Modern Sporting Rifle sales. Thompson/Center’s decision to introduce an affordable bolt-action rifle to initiate brand loyalty made perfect sense.
