Key Features
- 21-inch Heavy Button-Rifled Stainless Barrel – The heavy profile and button rifling reduce barrel whip and harmonics, delivering consistent sub-MOA accuracy at 50 to 100 yards. This barrel stays rigid shot after shot, even during rapid-fire strings.
- Natural Brown Thumbhole Laminate Stock – The ergonomic thumbhole design positions your hand in a neutral, repeatable grip and the laminated wood construction resists warping from humidity. It keeps your cheek weld and trigger hand stable across long sessions.
- User-Adjustable AccuTrigger – The AccuTrigger lets you dial pull weight from 2.5 to 6 pounds without tools. A crisp, clean break eliminates creep and overtravel, making it easier to call your shots on small targets.
- Drilled and Tapped Satin Stainless Receiver – The receiver is pre-drilled and tapped for standard rimfire scope bases, so you can mount optics directly without a gunsmith. The satin finish reduces glare in bright field conditions.
- Detachable 5-Round Box Magazine – The box magazine feeds .22 LR reliably and releases with a push-button. It lets you load and unload quickly without fumbling with loose rounds, especially during training drills or competition stages.
Pros & Cons
- Pros: Sub-MOA accuracy out of the box with quality match ammo; AccuTrigger is genuinely adjustable and crisp; laminate stock is stable in varying weather; stainless barrel resists corrosion for outdoor use; receiver is optics-ready.
- Cons: The thumbhole stock may not fit left-handed shooters comfortably; factory magazine can be finicky with some wax-coated .22 LR loads; the heavy barrel adds weight that may feel unbalanced for off-hand shooting.
