About the Long Range Hunter

Our Long Range Hunter is similar to our Carbon Rifleman but uses a more traditional match grade, stainless steel barrel as opposed to Carbon Fiber. The steel barrel allows us to hit weight ranges from 6.5 to 10 pounds simply by changing the barrel contour. So, we can build it as a lightweight carry rifle or a heavy rifle, perfect for stand hunting. We use a one-to-one aluminum pillar and full glass-bedding system to ensure perfect alignment and sub-½-MOA accuracy with factory hunting ammo.
