Why the Patriot Works

The .243 Winchester is America's favorite varmint and predator cartridge—flat-shooting, accurate, and manageable for shooters of all experience levels. The fluted barrel reduces weight while improving heat dissipation. The threaded muzzle accepts suppressors or muzzle devices for enhanced versatility. The adjustable trigger gives you control over your shot, while the Picatinny rail ensures your optics stay mounted and zeroed.

This is a rifle built to work, day after day, in the field.
