The patroness of the Sauer 505 bolt-action rifle is Artemis, the Greek goddess of hunting. This choice is no coincidence, as the Sauer 505 Artemis / ErgoCompact was specifically developed for female hunters. Homer referred to Artemis as the "roaming through the fields" and "mistress of the accurate arrows." If Homer were to write his epics today, he would likely have called her the "roaming mistress of the accurate hunting rifle," in light of the new model from J.P. Sauer & Son.
The Sauer 505 is characterized by its solid steel housing, which, despite its robustness, contributes only 732 grams to the total weight. From the compact stock to the precise steel housing and the cold-hammered barrel, this rifle is specifically tailored to the needs of female hunters.
