Key Features
- Carbon Fiber Wrapped Barrel – Why it matters: Reduces weight without sacrificing stiffness or accuracy, so you can carry it all day and still hit the X-ring at 600 yards.
- Burnt Bronze Cerakote Finish – Why it matters: Provides a tough, corrosion-resistant coating that holds up against rain, sweat, and brush, and it looks sharp in the field.
- Sub-MOA Accuracy Guarantee – Why it matters: You’re not gambling on groups; this rifle is guaranteed to shoot under one minute of angle with quality ammunition, giving you confidence on long-range shots.
- Threaded Muzzle (5/8×24) – Why it matters: Makes it easy to mount a suppressor or muzzle brake, reducing recoil and noise for follow-up shots or quieter hunts.
- Carbon Canyon Phantom Stock – Why it matters: Lightweight and ergonomic, with a comfortable comb height for optics and a textured grip that stays put even in wet conditions.
Who It’s For
This rifle is for the hunter who hikes miles before daylight and the shooter who spends weekends ringing steel at 800 yards. It’s for the guy who wants a lightweight rig that doesn’t trade accuracy for weight savings. If you’re chasing pronghorn, mule deer, or punching paper at distance, the RL FFT in 6mm Creedmoor is a solid choice.
Pros and Cons
- Pro: Extremely lightweight at 5.5 lbs – easy to carry in steep terrain.
- Pro: Sub-MOA guarantee – you know it’s accurate right out of the box.
- Pro: 1:8″ twist stabilizes heavy 108-115 grain bullets for long-range work.
- Con: The carbon fiber barrel can heat up faster than a steel barrel during rapid fire strings – not a deal-breaker for hunting, but worth noting for high-volume range sessions.
