About the Krieghoff Hubertus

The Krieghoff Hubertus is a German break-action single-shot hunting rifle built on a slim, compact steel action. It uses a manual Combi-Cocking Device mounted on the tang, which lets the rifle be carried fully loaded with the striker uncocked and cocked only at the moment of the shot for safe handling. Offered with interchangeable barrels in a wide range of calibers from .222 Remington up to 9.3x74R, it is prized among European hunters for its light weight, quick handling, and traditional craftsmanship.

The name honours Saint Hubertus, the patron saint of hunters, reflecting the rifle's dedicated hunting heritage and the Krieghoff family's long tradition of building fine German sporting arms since 1886.
