While the base rifle is plenty impressive, there are some add-ons that can enhance your precision downrange.

First up: A sturdy bipod like those made by Harris, a company known for its tank-tough products. A good bipod will help steady the rifle for precise shots and on-target follow-ups.

Of course, you’ll need quality optics, too. U.S. Optics’ 1.8-10X MR-10 scope offers plenty of magnification. A 37mm objective lens sits in front of a Turret Parallax Adjustment Locator (TPAL) system guaranteeing the sharpest image resolution possible.
