A precision bolt gun with a 16 inch barrel might raise an eyebrow at first, but there's real logic behind this configuration. The shorter tube makes the BA Tactical quick to handle, easy to run off a truck bed or barricade, and a natural host for a suppressor without ending up with a pole vault. The barrel itself is Christensen Arms' aerograde carbon fiber wrapped 416R stainless with a target contour, free floated, hand lapped, and match chambered, with a 1:10 twist that stabilizes the heavy .308 bullets most people reach for at distance. Up front you get a removable stainless side baffle brake over standard 5/8×24 threads, so swapping to a can takes about a minute.
The receiver is machined from 416 stainless and finished in black nitride, with a full length integral 20 MOA Picatinny rail cut right into the action, so there's no separate base to work loose. The twin lug, spiral fluted bolt runs smooth with an oversized knob that's easy to grab with gloves on, and the enlarged ejection port keeps brass clearing cleanly. Feeding comes from an AICS pattern detachable box magazine seated in billet aluminum bottom metal with a tactical mag release. The TriggerTech trigger breaks clean in the 2.5 to 3.5 pound range and is a genuine highlight of the whole package.
The black and gray webbed carbon fiber composite stock is spot bedded with Invar pillars for a consistent, repeatable action fit. Adjustable comb height and length of pull let you dial in proper eye alignment behind your glass, and the vertical grip angle sits naturally when you're prone or on a bag. Five flush cup mounts and a bottom rail section handle slings and bipods.
At 7.4 pounds bare, this rifle carries easier than most precision guns, and it's backed by Christensen's Sub-MOA Guarantee. For a do-it-all .308 that's just as comfortable suppressed at the range as it is riding in a truck, this one checks a lot of boxes.
Yes. The 16 inch barrel is threaded 5/8×24, which is the standard pattern for most .308 suppressors and muzzle devices. The factory side baffle brake is removable, so you can spin it off and mount a can directly. The short barrel length is a big plus here since the overall package stays manageable with a suppressor attached.
Christensen Arms backs this rifle with their Sub-MOA Guarantee, meaning it should shoot under one inch groups at 100 yards with quality ammo. The free floated, hand lapped carbon fiber wrapped barrel and spot bedded action are what make that possible. You give up some velocity compared to a 20 or 24 inch tube, but .308 still performs well past 800 yards from a 16 inch barrel with good match loads.
It feeds from AICS pattern detachable box magazines, which is the most common short action precision magazine standard out there. One magazine ships with the rifle, and aftermarket options from Magpul, MDT, and Accurate-Mag will run in it as well. The billet aluminum bottom metal includes a tactical style mag release for quick swaps.
Yes, the carbon fiber composite stock has an adjustable comb and adjustable length of pull, so you can set your cheek weld and reach to the trigger for a proper fit behind a scope. It also features a vertical grip angle suited to prone and positional shooting, plus five flush cup mounts and a bottom rail for slings and bipods.
