Key Features
- 6.5 PRC Chambering – This cartridge pushes a 140-grain bullet at 2,950 fps, giving you a 1,200-yard effective range with minimal wind drift. Why it matters: You can engage distant targets with confidence, even in gusty conditions.
- Stainless Steel Barrel – The 22-inch barrel is button-rifled and free-floated for consistent accuracy. Why it matters: Expect sub-MOA groups straight from the box, batch after batch.
- SKL-SS Action – A two-lug, 90-degree bolt throw with a floating bolt head. Why it matters: Smooth cycling and reliable extraction, even with hot loads or carbon fouling.
- Integral Picatinny Rail – The receiver is machined with a 20 MOA rail. Why it matters: You can mount high-magnification optics without needing extra base hardware, and the built-in slope gives you extra elevation for long shots.
- TriggerTech Trigger – Factory-installed TriggerTech adjustable trigger (per manufacturer specs). Why it matters: A crisp, creep-free break down to 1.5 lbs helps you shoot tight groups without fighting the trigger.
Who It’s For

It’s also a solid choice for hunters who need a lightweight, accurate rifle for mountain country.
Pros & Cons
- Pro: The 6.5 PRC cartridge offers a flatter trajectory than the 6.5 Creedmoor, with 200-300 fps more velocity. You’ll have less holdover at 1,000 yards.
- Pro: The stainless steel construction resists rust and corrosion, making it a good choice for wet or humid environments.
- Pro: The 20 MOA rail is a money-saver — no need to buy a separate base for long-range scopes.
- Con: 6.5 PRC ammo is less common than 6.5 Creedmoor, so you may need to order online or reload. According to Pure Precision specs, the rifle is optimized for factory match ammo, but availability can be spotty.
- Con: The 22-inch barrel is a compromise between portability and velocity; if you want maximum speed, a 24- or 26-inch barrel would give you another 50-75 fps.
