About the Sauer 505

The Sauer 505 is J.P. Sauer & Sohn's newest premium bolt-action rifle, introduced in 2024. It features the innovative ErgoLux stock system designed for optimal ergonomics and instinctive shouldering. Like other Blaser Group rifles, the 505 offers a modular platform with quick-change barrel capability, manual cocking/de-cocking system, and interchangeable bolt heads. The 505 represents the latest evolution of Sauer's bolt-action design philosophy, combining the proven mechanics of the 404 with refined ergonomics, improved stock geometry, and modern manufacturing techniques.

The Sauer 505 represents J.P. Sauer & Sohn's vision for the future of European hunting rifles, combining 273 years of gunmaking tradition with ergonomic research that produced the ErgoLux stock - a design that adjusts the grip angle and cheekpiece geometry to promote faster, more instinctive shouldering in the field.
