“barrett fieldcraft”

Barrett entered the bolt-action hunting rifle business last year, and its initial offering, the Fieldcraft, is an ultra-light rifle developed using Remington’s Model 700 as a starting point.

The in-flight and on-game performance that Winchester's Expedition Big Game and Expedition Big Game Long Range cartridges promise is too good to ignore.

Barrett, a manufacturer long known primarily for its .50-cal tactical rifles, branched into a whole new market in 2016 with the addition of the Sovereign line of double-barrel shotguns, and the Tennessee-based company has done it again this year with the introduction of the Fieldcraft, a lightweight, bolt-action hunting rifle.

The 145th NRA Annual Meetings and Exhibits have come and gone. Official estimates say more than 80,000 NRA members packed the Kentucky Exposition Center over the weekend, and we can't thank y'all enough. Here's a quick roundup of some of the coverage the AmericanHunter.org team produced during the show.

Get a closer look at the new lightweight Fieldcraft rifle that Barrett announced at the 145th NRA Annual Meetings and Exhibits.

You may know Barrett best for its long-range rifles in .50 BMG and .338 Lapua Mag., but the company has announced a line of substantially smaller bolt guns for hunters at the 145th NRA Annual Meetings and Exhibits.
