Description
The Barrett MRAD SMR .300 Win Mag 26-inch Fixed Stock is a bolt-action precision rifle built for shooters who demand consistent long-range accuracy without the weight and complexity of a multi-caliber platform. Chambered in .300 Winchester Magnum, this rifle pairs a 26-inch match-grade fluted barrel with a fixed, adjustable-comb stock and an adjustable match-grade trigger module for repeatable shot control. It’s a streamlined single-caliber variant of the legendary MRAD, designed for precision rifle shooters, law enforcement marksmen, and serious hunters who need a reliable, accurate tool for distances out to 1,500 meters.

Key Features
- 26-Inch Match-Grade Fluted Barrel – Reduces weight while maintaining stiffness for consistent harmonics. Per Barrett specs, this barrel delivers sub-MOA accuracy at 1,000 yards with quality factory ammunition.
- Adjustable Match-Grade Trigger Module – Pull weight adjustable from 2.5 to 4.5 lbs, with zero take-up and crisp break, ensuring you don’t pull shots off target.
- Fixed Stock with Adjustable Comb – Fixed design reduces weight and complexity versus the folding MRAD stock, while the adjustable cheek piece lets you align your eye with the optic for consistent cheek weld.
- Extended Top Rail and 21.75-Inch Handguard Rail – Full-length MIL-STD-1913 rail system provides ample real estate for mounting night vision, clip-on thermal, or a high-magnification scope without bridging the receiver.
- Single-Caliber Streamlined Design – By eliminating the multi-caliber barrel swap system, the SMR trims over a pound and shortens overall length by 1.5 inches compared to the standard MRAD, making it easier to transport and handle in tight positions.
Who It’s For
This rifle is built for the precision shooter who knows exactly what caliber they need and doesn’t want to pay for or carry extra weight from a multi-caliber system. It’s ideal for law enforcement countersnipers, competition shooters in PRS or tactical matches, and hunters who engage at extended ranges. If you value a dedicated .300 Win Mag platform with a fixed stock for maximum rigidity and a proven Barrett action, this is your rifle.
Pros and Cons
- Pro: Sub-MOA accuracy guarantee out of the box with match ammunition.
- Pro: Lighter and more compact than the standard MRAD, easier to pack and maneuver.
- Pro: Full-length Picatinny rail system allows for versatile optic and accessory mounting.
- Con: Fixed stock limits adjustability for shooters who prefer a folding stock for storage or transport. If you need a compact breakdown option, the standard MRAD with folding stock may be a better fit.
- Con: .300 Win Mag recoil is stout; a quality muzzle brake or suppressor is recommended for follow-up shots.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the effective range of the Barrett MRAD SMR .300 Win Mag?
With quality match ammunition, the MRAD SMR is capable of consistent hits on man-sized targets out to 1,500 meters. The .300 Win Mag cartridge retains supersonic energy past 1,200 yards, making it a proven choice for long-range precision.
Does the MRAD SMR accept the same magazines as the standard MRAD?
Yes, the SMR uses the same AICS-pattern magazines as the standard MRAD. It ships with one 5-round magazine, and 10-round magazines are available separately.
Can I mount a suppressor on the MRAD SMR?
Yes, the barrel is threaded 5/8×24 TPI, compatible with most .30-caliber suppressors. A suppressor will reduce recoil and noise, but note that overall length will increase.
Is the stock adjustable for length of pull?
No, the fixed stock does not adjust length of pull. The comb height is adjustable via a knob, but LOP is fixed at approximately 13.75 inches. This is a trade-off for the weight savings and rigidity of the fixed design.
What optics are recommended for this rifle?
A high-magnification scope with MIL or MOA reticle is recommended, such as a Nightforce ATACR 5-25×56 or Vortex Razor HD Gen III 6-36×56. The extended top rail allows for mounting without interference.
