Detailed Features
The AccuTrigger adjusts to let you set pull weight to your preference, which helps with consistency. At 37.5 inches overall and 7.1 pounds, it handles well in tight spots, useful when hunting from a blind or moving through dense cover. The 18-inch barrel keeps things compact without meaningfully hurting velocity in the .350 Legend chambering. The 2-position top tang safety is within easy thumb reach.
Usage
.350 Legend is a straight-walled cartridge, which makes this rifle a practical option in states that restrict hunting to straight-walled cases. Recoil is manageable and the caliber is effective on deer-sized game. The shorter length-of-pull suits smaller-framed shooters, younger hunters, or anyone who prefers a handier package over a full-size rifle.
