“field positions”

The Ruger SFAR is nearly identical in size to an AR-15-style rifle, yet it’s chambered in .308 Winchester, combining the ballistic advantages of the .308 with the size of a traditional MSR.

The CZ 600 Trail proved to be a handy rifle that can down game in hard-to-find places, all without alerting everything with fur that you have moved into the woods. Its lighter chamberings make it easy for recoil-shy shooters to field and makes it ideal for target work, too.
