The TL3 short action anchors this build with features valued by precision shooters: a three-lug, 60-degree bolt throw; controlled-round feed; mechanical ejector; a floating, replaceable bolt head; and an integral recoil lug. This receiver follows the Remington 700 footprint. The right-hand bolt is spiral-fluted and topped with an oversized knurled knob for confident manipulation.
The 24-inch stainless steel barrel uses a heavy contour for stability and is threaded at the muzzle. A multi-port, three-baffle brake is installed to reduce movement at the shot. Chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor, the setup supports consistent external ballistics with widely available match-grade ammunition.
The rifle is housed in an MPA BA-series aluminum chassis finished in matte black. It includes the RAT (Rapid Adjustment Technology) forend for sliding accessories, an integrated bag rider, an adjustable cheekpiece, and an adjustable buttpad. A vertical, textured pistol grip promotes a straight trigger press and secure purchase.
A Timney trigger is installed and set for a light, crisp break. A two-position safety is present for straightforward operation. A one-piece Picatinny scope base is mounted to the receiver for easy optic attachment.
Feeding is via an AICS-pattern detachable box magazine system. One 10-round Accurate-Mag steel magazine is included. The rifle’s length of pull is set to 14 inches. Construction blends a steel receiver with a robust aluminum chassis, and the finished package presents a clean, two-tone appearance with a matte-black receiver/chassis and a natural stainless (silver) barrel. Made in the USA.
