Detailed Features: 

The stainless steel dual-lug action has precision-cut raceways machined to tight tolerances for consistent lock-up and accuracy. The 70-degree bolt throw cycles cleanly even under oversized scopes. The Bix'n Andy trigger adjusts from 1 lb to 3 lb pull weight, and the drop-box magazine allows fast reloads under pressure. The carbon fiber stock includes an adjustable cheek piece and an integral picatinny rail for bipod attachment. A carbon bedding system improves shot-to-shot consistency, and the radial muzzle brake reduces recoil noticeably. Half-MOA accuracy is guaranteed.
