Designed with both precision and modularity in mind, the MRAD is equally at home on the range or on duty.
Addition to the award-winning MRAD product line, the Single Mission Rifle (SMR). The new MRAD SMR features the same performance of the regular MRAD, along with .75 MOA accuracy, but in a simplified package utilizing 90% parts commonality with the standard MRAD configuration.
The Single Mission Rifle name comes from the fact that the rifle is set from the factory in only one caliber, unlike the interchangeable barrel ability of the standard MRAD. The primary distinction of the SMR is the free float barrel which is held in the upper receiver with a standard barrel nut. Additionally, the non-folding stock is fixed with a vertically adjustable cheek piece and separate spacers for length of pull adjustment. These changes lead to a slimmer, lighter overall rifle; trimming nearly 2 ½ lbs. off the weight and 1 inch off the overall length of the standard MRAD rifle.
Caliber Dictionary
The Below Information Has Been Provided From Our Gun Caliber Dictionary And Is Meant For Informational Purposes Only. It Is Not Intended to Describe The Unique Specifications For This Ammunition.The 308 Winchester (7.62×51 NATO) was introduced by in 1952. Based on the T65 experimental military cartridge, Winchester essentially jumped the gun with the civilian introduction; the 7.62×51 wasn’t officially adopted (or named) until 1954. The military’s intent was to create a shorter cartridge that would fit into a lighter version of the M1 Garand. This was successful beyond their wildest dreams: The 308 Winchester is essentially a 30-06 case greatly shortened to 2.015-inch, but it lags only about 100 feet per second behind the 30-06 in velocity, and with it shorter, more efficient case it tends to be more accurate. The 308 is suitable for any hunting for which the 30-06 is suitable–which means almost anything in the world short of large, dangerous game. The 308 is a standard chambering among most manufacturers and is found in all action types. Factory loads are legion, including a wide selection of very accurate match loads. — Craig Boddington
