Key Features
- Carbon-Fiber Stock: Shaves over a pound off traditional stocks, so you can hike farther without fatigue.
- 22-Inch Barrel: Balances velocity and maneuverability — enough speed for 6.5 PRC out to 1,000 yards, but short enough for tight blinds.
- TriggerTech Trigger: Factory-set at 2.5 lbs with zero creep, giving you a clean break every time.
- Three-Lug Bolt: 60-degree lift means faster follow-ups and less chance of bumping your scope on a low mount.
- Cerakote Finish: Tungsten/Phantom color resists rust and scratches, so one drop in the dirt won’t ruin your hunt.
Who It’s For
This rifle is for the hunter who wants one gun for everything: mountain elk, prairie dogs, and steel at distance. It’s also for the precision shooter who values a light build over a heavy bench gun. First-time buyers will appreciate the ready-to-shoot package — no need to swap triggers or stocks.
Pros & Cons
- Pros: Sub-MOA guarantee, lightweight carbon stock, excellent trigger, Cerakote finish holds up, fast 60-degree bolt lift.
- Cons: The 6.5 PRC cartridge has more recoil than 6.5 Creedmoor, and factory ammo can be harder to find in rural stores.

FAQ
What scope base does this rifle use?
It uses standard Remington 700 short-action scope bases, so any 2-piece or 1-piece base for a 700 SA will fit.
Is the 6.5 PRC hard on barrels?
Yes, 6.5 PRC runs at higher pressure than 6.5 Creedmoor, so expect barrel life around 2,500-3,000 rounds before accuracy drops off. That’s typical for magnum cartridges.
Can I use this for deer hunting?
Absolutely. The 6.5 PRC with a 140-grain bullet is excellent for deer, elk, and even black bear at moderate ranges.
Does it come with a muzzle brake?
No, the barrel is threaded 5/8×24 but does not include a brake. You can add one aftermarket.
