About
What it is, and why it matters
The Truvelo 700 Phantom X is a South African bolt-action precision rifle built on a Remington 700 short-action footprint. Chambered in .22-250 Remington, 6mm Creedmoor, 6.5mm Creedmoor, and .308 Winchester, it uses a 26-inch cold-hammer-forged high-alloy chromoly barrel mounted in a 7075-T6 aluminium chassis with an ARCA rail, fully adjustable buttstock, cheek piece, and pistol grip. Feeding from AICS-pattern detachable magazines, it is aimed at PRS/NRL-style precision-rifle sport shooters as well as tactical marksmanship roles.
Truvelo is best known for its heavy anti-materiel and countermeasure sniper rifles, but the 700 Phantom X marked the company's move into the civilian precision-rifle-series (PRS) sport market with a Remington 700-compatible chassis rifle.
Marketed for PRS/NRL competition. Ships with an operator's manual, one magazine, and an adjustable cheek piece; optics and accessories are sold separately. AICS-style magazines available in 5- or 10-round capacity.
