The rifle’s 20-inch barrel provides a handy balance for maneuvering in a blind or thick cover, while the .243 Win cartridge delivers excellent terminal performance on medium game without punishing recoil.

This configuration ships to Missouri and compliant US states, ready for your preferred scope mounting system. Look, when it comes to a dependable hunting tool, the question isn’t about flashy features—it’s about a platform that works when you need it. The 20-inch barrel keeps the overall length manageable, a key consideration when you’re navigating dense oak-hickory forests or setting up in a compact ground blind.
Who This Rifle Is For
This rifle is for the Missouri hunter who prioritizes function over form. It’s for the landowner managing coyote populations, the deer hunter who wants a lightweight, low-recoil option for long days on stand, or the shooter seeking a straightforward foundation for a future custom build. The threaded muzzle is a major advantage for those considering hearing-safe hunting practices with a suppressor or wanting to tame muzzle jump with a brake. The action is a known quantity, compatible with a vast aftermarket of triggers, stocks, and chassis systems from brands like Timney and Magpul for those who eventually want to personalize it.
Pros & Cons
Pros: The factory threading is a significant value-add, saving time and money. The .243 Winchester is a versatile, readily available hunting round. The Model 700 action is famously robust and supports immense aftermarket customization. The synthetic stock is virtually maintenance-free and the rifle’s total weight, typically around 7.5 lbs unscoped, makes for easy carrying.
Cons: The basic SPS synthetic stock is functional but may lack the precise bedding and ergonomic refinement of higher-end options. As a hunting rifle, the 20-inch barrel sacrifices some muzzle velocity compared to longer barreled versions, though the difference is marginal for most practical hunting ranges inside 300 yards.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What thread pitch is on the muzzle?
A: The barrel features a 5/8″-24 thread pattern, which is the standard for many .30 caliber muzzle devices and suppressors, offering broad compatibility.
Q: Is the barrel free-floated?
A: The barrel is free-floated from the receiver forward, which helps improve consistency and accuracy by eliminating stock pressure points on the barrel.
Q: What type of scope base does it use?
A: The receiver is drilled and tapped for a standard Remington 700 scope base pattern. You’ll need to purchase and install separate bases and rings to mount an optic, allowing you to choose your preferred height and brand.
