About the Semprio In-Line Repeater
For over a century, Krieghoff has been known for blending tradition with innovation. The Krieghoff Semprio challenges traditional thinking, propelling the hunting rifle into a new era.
The first of its kind, the Semprio’s in-line repeating utilizes the ergonomics and kinetic forces recoil produces to optimize the hunting experience. This latest addition to the Krieghoff hunting rifle line combines our hallmark quick target acquisition, safety and combi-cocking features with revolutionary ideas.
Total focus on the target… lightning fast repeating… the ultimate in safety… Krieghoff craftsmanship – the Semprio begins…
Standard Features
| Krieghoff In-Line Action: | Krieghoff precision engineering took an innovative look at recoil and realized its forces could be incorporated into a revolutionary new design for a hunting rifle. The Semprio’s in-line repeating motion initiates with recoil. Rather than the conventional “pump action” of cycling the firearm towards you and then away, the Semprio’s action unlocks and guides your hand intuitively forward on friction-free sliders as the spent cartridge ejects. The forward motion sustains the energy started by recoil, holding the rifle firmly into your shoulder. The last action of the firing sequence, pulling the rifle closed, loads a new round in the chamber, while keeping the rifle in position and immediately ready for the next shot. Maintaining steady rifle and hand position enhances the ability to fire accurately and quickly. |
| Take Down Feature: | The Semprio offers the convenience of easy take down for storing and travel. The compact size offers you the ability of discrete transportation. The Take Down feature also allows for quick caliber changes. |
| Combi Cocking Device: | The Combi-Cocking Device – state of the art multi-function device that controls all functions of the action except the actual pullingof the trigger. In the rear position, the possibility of accidental discharge is eliminated. The firing mechanism is completely uncocked and the firing pin is retracted. A two-clock turn to the right unlocks the rifle for opening, facilitating either take down or loading. A slight push forward on the cocking device in the 12 o’clock upright position, readies the rifle for firing.The rifle stays cocked and ready to fire until manually returned to the uncocked position. This integral part adds intuition and ease to function. |
| Safe to Carry Position: | When hunting in a party, you can visually assure everyone your rifle is totally safe by unloading it and carrying it the “Safe-to-Carry position”. The Safe-to-Carry position locks the Semprio’s action partially open, clearly showing the rifle is unloaded and unable to fire. |
| Universal Trigger System (UAS): | The Semprio offers the optimal trigger for every hunting situation. – a crisp trigger set at approximately 1250 grams (2.75lbs) for a fast, intuitive shot. |
| Finish: | Durable gray nickel finish or tough matte black anodized finish. Both finish choices are designed to endure conditions on any hunting field and are available in the standard version. |
| Quick Detachable Box Magazine: | The Semprio’s magazine is designed to hold up to four cartridges in standard caliber and up to three cartridges in magnum caliber. The precision design allows for rapid insertion and detachment. Extra magazines are available separately. |
| Pre-machined for a variety of scope mounts: | The Semprio comes pre-machined for easy scope mounting. Mounts are simple to install and flexible to use allowing several scopes to be mounted on the same rifle. |
| Open Sights: | Designed for quick acquisition of moving targets, the Semprio’s open sights include a fluorescent front bead and rear sight. Both are fully adjustable to change the point of impact. |
| Plasma Nitrated Barrels: | Semprio barrels are specially coated to prevent corrosion under varying weather conditions hunters encounter. |
| Stock with Special Semprio Cheekpiece: | Following in tradition, the Semprio stock is made from fine walnut. Adding innovation is the anatomically designed cheekpiece accommodating the contours of the face, thus providing a close cheek to stock fit. The Semprio is also available standard without the cheekpiece. A rubber recoil pad completes the stock. |
| Click and Go Sling Swivels: | Another easy to use feature of the Semprio. The Click-and-Go sling swivels allow slings to be installed and detached with just a push of a button. |

Specifications and Options
| Interchangeable Barrels: | Built to hunt in any arena, the Semprio becomes the champion of versatility through the addition of barrel assemblies in various calibers. The Semprio’s precision engineering and design allow for the use of multiple barrels on the same receiver without the use of tools or need to adjust point of impact. Barrel assemblies are available with or without the forend, as the forend is easily removed using the provided wrench and universally fits all barrel assemblies. |
| Multiple Caliber Groups: | Quick caliber changes between standard and magnum caliber groups broaden the range of the hunt. The Semprio offers this advantage with a simple change of the locking bolt to accommodate standard or magnum caliber barrel assemblies. Each locking bolt is clearly marked to correspond with the caliber group and requires no tools to change. |
