Key Features
- Non-rotating, Mauser-type controlled round feed extractor is among the most positive case extraction systems ever invented, and features a fixed blade-type ejector that positively ejects empty cases as the bolt is moved fully rearward.
- Hinged, solid-steel floorplate for easy unloading without having to chamber each cartridge. Features an engraved FTW Hunter logo and patented latch that is flush with the trigger guard to avoid accidental dumping of cartridges.
- 20 MOA Picatinny rail secured with four, #8-40 screws for increased long-range elevation capabilities overtop the traditional integral scope mounts that are machined directly on the solid-steel receiver.
- Three-position safety is easily accessible and allows the shooter to lock the bolt or to load and unload the rifle with the safety engaged.
- Pro-Series H-S Precision tan-black speckled synthetic stock features a full-length aluminum bedding block and slender pistol grip with Pro-Center technology.
- The LC6 trigger features smooth, crisp performance right out of the box for increased accuracy on the range or in the field.
- Cold hammer-forged barrel results in ultra-precise rifling that provides exceptional accuracy and longevity.
- Rugged, one-piece, stainless steel bolt.
