Key Features
- User-Adjustable AccuTrigger: You can dial in the pull weight from about 2.5 to 6 pounds without any tools. That means you get a crisp, clean break every time—no more flinching or pulling shots.
- Threaded Heavy Sporter Barrel (20″): The barrel is threaded 5/8-24, so you can screw on a muzzle brake or suppressor in seconds. It’s also a heavy sporter profile, which helps with heat dissipation and keeps groups tight.
- One-Piece Picatinny Rail: No need to hunt for proprietary bases—this rail is already mounted and ready for your favorite rings or a direct-mount optic. It’s rock-solid and keeps zero.
- Left-Hand Action with Updated Bolt Handle: Finally, a compact rifle built for lefties. The bolt handle is larger and easier to grip, especially with gloves on.
- Gun Metal Bronze Cerakote & Western Camo Stock: The Cerakote finish shrugs off rust and scratches, and the Western camo pattern blends into most hunting environments. It’s both durable and field-ready.
Who It’s For
This rifle is built for the left-handed hunter who wants a compact, lightweight setup for treestands, blinds, or hiking into remote spots. It’s also perfect for the first-time buyer who wants a reliable, accurate rifle without dropping a ton of cash—and doesn’t want to mess with aftermarket mods. If you’re a righty, look elsewhere, but lefties, this is your jam.
Pros & Cons
Pros: Accurate right out of the box thanks to the AccuTrigger and thread-in headspacing; left-hand action is smooth and fast; Cerakote finish is tough as nails; threaded barrel adds versatility; one-piece rail saves you money on bases.
Cons: The synthetic stock is functional but feels a bit basic—if you’re a stickler for premium wood or chassis stocks, you’ll want to upgrade later.
