This rifle is built on the Remington 700 Short Action with an approximate 0.474-inch bolt face (.308 family). It uses a push-feed system with dual opposed locking lugs, a plunger ejector, and a recessed bolt face with a clip-type extractor. The action incorporates a BDL-style internal box magazine with a hinged floorplate and a stated capacity of 4+1.
The barrel is an aftermarket, unmarked 26-inch heavy-contour stainless tube with a recessed/target crown. It is unthreaded and has no iron sights. While the rifle is .22 caliber, the exact chambering is unconfirmed due to the lack of barrel markings.
The bolt features spiral fluting for reduced bearing surface and an oversized, knurled bolt knob for confident manipulation. The receiver is stainless steel with a matte bead-blast finish, and it is drilled and tapped for optics. Two-piece scope bases with rings are already installed for straightforward scope mounting.
The composite stock has a gray/black webbed finish with a beavertail fore-end and pistol-grip profile. QD sling swivel studs and a Remington-branded rubber recoil pad are fitted, and the length of pull measures 14.0 inches. An installed leather sling and an elastic buttstock cartridge carrier round out the setup.
