Touted in the press release as the “lightest large bore AR’s on the market,” the Wilson Combat Hunter lineup includes three models of varying weights and features chambered in calibers like 6.5 Creedmoor, .260 Remington, 7mm08 Remington, .308 Winchester, .338 Federal and .358 Winchester. The company says these rifles are guaranteed to shoot sub one-inch, three-shot groups at 100 yards.

Similar to the Berryville, Ark.-based company’s other AR-pattern rifles, these Wilson Combat Hunter models feature the company’s in-house button-rifled, stainless match grade barrels in varying lengths. Also included are low-mass bolt carriers, along with a  tuneable Wilson/SLR click-adjustable gas block.
