Key Features
- 416R Stainless Steel Barrel with 5R Rifling — Why it matters: 5R rifling reduces bullet deformation and copper fouling, giving you tighter groups and easier cleaning after a day at the range.
- 15.25-inch M-Lok Handguard — Why it matters: You can mount lights, bipods, or grips exactly where you need them without adding bulky rails — keeps the rifle slim and lightweight for young shooters.
- Muzzle Brake — Why it matters: Less felt recoil means faster follow-up shots and less fatigue, especially for newer shooters or family members working on their form.
- Carbine Stock and A2 Grip — Why it matters: The adjustable stock lets you fit the rifle to different shooters in the family, and the A2 grip gives a natural, comfortable angle for control.
- 6.5 Creedmoor Chambering — 10+1 Capacity — Why it matters: 6.5 Creedmoor is flat-shooting and accurate at distance, while the 10-round magazine keeps you in compliance with many state laws without sacrificing range time.
