Key Features and What They Mean for You
- Button-Rifled, Free-Floated Barrel: The 22-inch barrel is made using a button-rifling process, which creates a consistent bore for better accuracy. It’s also free-floated, meaning the barrel doesn’t touch the stock, reducing potential for shooting inaccuracies caused by wood movement.
- Adjustable M.O.A. Trigger System: The trigger breaks cleanly and is adjustable between 2.5 and 3.5 pounds from the factory. Having an adjustable trigger is a bonus, meaning you don’t necessarily need to spend extra money on an upgrade.
- Turkish Walnut Stock: The Grade I Turkish walnut stock is hand-bedded to the action and recoil lug for improved consistency. The wood is finished with a satin sheen.
- Two-Position Safety: This rifle features a two-position thumb safety that locks both the bolt and trigger. The safety operates smoothly and quietly.
- Detachable Magazine: The included flush-fit magazine holds 4 rounds of 6.5 Creedmoor. It’s designed for reliable feeding.
Who is this rifle for?

Things to Consider
- While the stock is solid, some shooters using heavy bipods might find it benefits from bedding or an aftermarket stock.
