Rock River Arms , the industry's most respected name in Modern Sporting Rifles and pistols, has developed a new precision rifle configuration that delivers unprecedented factory long-range accuracy and the ability to work with two of the leading long-range cartridges — the .308 Win. and the .338 Lapua. The new RRA XM24 Tactical is built to satisfy the performance requirements of defense professionals and special tactics members. Designed around MDT’s ESS non-folding chassis to provide maximum rigidity, the XM24 Tactical incorporates 26-inch heavy-contour stainless steel barrels that have been air-gauged to guarantee maximum bore precision, cryo-treated for molecular stability and predictable harmonics, and treated with a black matte nitride finish to enhance concealment. Bullet stabilization comes from 1:10 (.308 Win.) and 1:9.5 (.338 Lapua) twist rates.
The barrels secure to the proprietary 700-style receiver via a barrel nut system that delivers solid and precise fitment and alignment. Included is a crow-foot wrench for barrel nut removal and installation. An oversized bolt handle and precision single-stage TriggerTech Primary trigger system provide the control management. Optic mounting comes courtesy of an included 20 MOA base scope rail while the rifle is fed through a single-stack 5-round detachable box magazine. All of this combines to deliver a precision, mission-deployable rifle with a guaranteed accuracy potential of less than ½ MOA when using premium ammunition. Overall weight is 13.2 lbs. and the rifle measures 46.25 inches long. MSRP for the RRA XM24 Tactical is $5,265.
