Key Features

• 18-inch S2W Barrel: This heavy-profile barrel maintains accuracy over sustained strings of fire, giving you consistent sub-MOA groups at 100 yards and beyond.
• MFR 15.0 M-LOK Forend: The free-float handguard keeps barrel harmonics clean and provides 15 inches of continuous M-LOK slots for bipods, lights, or slings without adding bulk.
• Geissele SD-3G Trigger: A flat-bow, single-stage trigger with a crisp 3-pound break that speeds up follow-up shots while keeping precision on target.
• Flat Dark Earth Cerakote Finish: This baked-on coating resists corrosion, scratches, and harsh weather, holding up under field use without chipping or fading.
• Daniel Defense Soft Touch Grip: The rubber over-molded grip reduces hand fatigue during long range sessions and stays secure even with gloves or wet hands.

Who It’s For

This rifle suits the competitive shooter who wants a flat-shooting, match-ready platform straight from the box. It also fits the hunter or varmint shooter who needs an accurate, lightweight build for walking fields or stalking game at moderate ranges. If you value a tuned trigger and a free-float rail without paying a gunsmith, this is your rifle.

Pros and Cons

• Pros: Outstanding trigger from Geissele; proven reliability from Daniel Defense; Cerakote finish holds up better than anodizing; 18-inch barrel balances speed and velocity.
• Cons: No iron sights included—plan for optics or backup irons; the heavy barrel profile adds a little weight compared to a lightweight pencil barrel.
