Three brand new Helix models named Noblesse, Alpinist and Sportster attracted at the IWA tradefair in Nuremberg great interest. Merkel has developed a functional modular system around its intuitive linear bolt-action rifle. Thanks to the take-down system each Helix can be optimized for different purposes in a few steps. For example by offering different stock and barrel variations: Elegant wood, thumbhole stock, or more robust and lightweight plastic with adjustable cheek piece. Merkel offers additionally new barrel versions in all Helix calibers - particularly fluted and semiweight versions. The news brochure is now available for >>scrolling or >>download.

At the beginning of this year, we presented our new bolt action to the professionals. Now, it’s time for you to discover the RX Helix. We invite all the hunters to test this new generation of gun in every shooting cinema of Germany. Professionals will take part to this day to advise and to guide you during this new experience.

On the other hand, you could already apply for the Helix Monteria, a Spanish driven hunt to which we will invite 7 hunters. Because of long distance shooting and rapid rearmament, the RX Helix is evidently the perfect weapon for this adventure.
