The Scout Squad configuration pairs an 18 inch, 6-groove carbon steel barrel with a 1:11 twist and a Springfield perforated muzzle brake. This setup offers quick handling while maintaining .308 Win performance, with gas operation and a rotating bolt for dependable cycling.
Sighting is handled by a National Match 0.062 inch front blade and an M14-pattern rear aperture with protective ears, featuring a 0.0690 adjustable aperture and MOA-click adjustments. A forward, handguard-mounted Picatinny rail supports scout-style mounting options, and a Sadlak receiver scope mount is already installed.
The receiver is investment-cast from AISI 8620 alloy steel, and the rifle uses a two-stage trigger consistent with the M14 platform. The chambering is .308 Win and it also accepts 7.62x51 NATO, feeding from a detachable box magazine with a 10+1 capacity as configured.
The black synthetic stock features molded checkering, a solid buttplate, and sling swivels. Dimensions include a 14.0 inch length of pull, an overall length of approximately 40.33 inches, and an unloaded weight of about 8 lb 8 oz. This example was manufactured in the United States in 2009.
