Key Features
- 20″ Fluted, Match-Grade Barrel — Hand-lapped and threaded for suppressor attachment, this barrel reduces weight and heat buildup while maintaining sub-MOA precision. Why it matters: shorter barrel improves maneuverability in thick cover or tight stands without sacrificing terminal ballistics at typical hunting ranges.
- C3 Carbon Rival Stock with Adjustable Comb — The carbon fiber construction drops weight while the adjustable comb lets you dial in cheek weld for optics. Why it matters: a proper cheek weld equals consistent shot placement, especially with magnum recoil.
- 70-Degree Bolt Throw — The dual-lug action cycles smooth and fast, clearing scope clearance issues common on long-action magnums. Why it matters: rapid follow-up shots and positive extraction in adverse conditions.
- Drop-Box Magazine — Allows quick unloading without cycling rounds through the action. Why it matters: safer field reloads and easier clearing when moving between positions.
- Precision-Cut Raceways — Machined to tight tolerances for consistent bolt travel. Why it matters: reliable feeding and extraction even with dirt or debris present.
Who It’s For
This rifle is for the hunter or shooter who demands a lightweight platform that still delivers precision at distance. It suits backcountry hunters packing miles on foot, law enforcement snipers needing a compact carry rifle, and serious shooters who want a factory-built rig that performs out of the box.
