Description
THE LIGHTWEIGHT HUNTING RIFLE
Fieldcraft receivers, barrels, and bolts are optimized and scaled for their specific caliber to maintain strength but keep overall weight down. All barrels and actions are made from 416 stainless steel and held to an exact tolerance for a smooth, fluid action.
Forgoing the slave-bedded process, every barreled action is mated to its stock through a hand-bedding process. And, unlike free floating barrels, Fieldcraft barrels and actions are full length bedded, reducing barrel harmonics and increasing stock rigidity.
The Barrett Fieldcraft stock is rigid and lightweight. The form was designed to be perfect for off-hand shooting and adaptable for many field conditions. The vertical grip is unobtrusive yet ideal for firm shouldering. Dual aluminum pillars molded into the stock provide support for the barreled action.
The bolt handle is attached to the bolt using a t-groove, rigidly fitted and pinned in place rather than traditional solder or welding. This prevents bolt handle failure by reducing the risk of joint corrosion or weakness.
A total of five #8-40 screw holes in the top of the receiver provides the user flexibility to move the front mount forward or aft. A single, concentric mounting plane lends itself to better alignment of the front and rear rings once mounted.
All Fieldcraft barrels are precision-honed, button-rifled and twice stress relieved. They are chambered, contoured, and crowned on the same machines that make precision barrels for MRAD and M107, providing unparalleled accuracy in a hunting rifle.
All models come with a crisp, single-stage Timney trigger. The trigger pull is user-adjustable and comes from the factory set to an optimal weight.
Designed with a top-loaded four round blind magazine, the stock is built to be sleek and lightweight. Reliability is improved by allowing appropriate clearance for bind free feeding.
The two-position safety, with FIRE and SAFE settings, contains low profile geometry to reduce its protrusion from the stock and prevent inadvertent activation, yet remaining easy to manipulate with a gloved
Made from 416 stainless steel and machined to exact tolerances for a smooth, fluid action; the Barrett receiver is designed for high tolerance and optimized scaling.
The custom roll over cheek piece is directly molded into the stock, providing comfort when shooting and a repeatable point of aim.
Each Fieldcraft is accuracy tested at the factory by shooting from a bench position with commercially available ammunition to ensure sub-moa capability.
