The world's most advanced precision-use rifle.

00FEATURES

The Spectacular knurled forend is 1.75 inches in diameter and very robust. It features three distinct and movable picatinny sections. These delron and aluminum sections make for the easy addition of various devices (laser, flashlight, night-vision, etc.) with a minimum vibration transference as well as quick disconnects for sling use (these rail sections are removable if desired).

The specially-designed bipod spud protrudes ahead from the forend and takes the standard Versa-Pod bipod (also compatible with the Harris bipod). The spud also has a quick-release sling swivel attachment built in. Its design allows the bipod to be quickly snapped on or off. The forend may be rotated and locked into four distinct quadrants which allows picatinny-mounted devices to move into the line of sight or, for example, move a bottom-mounted bipod to 12-o'clock position in order to facilitate shooting off of a pack or over a ledge. This is accomplished by loosening the forend retaining nut a few turns, rotating the forend to the desired position, and then hand-tightening the knurled nut. It takes about 10 seconds to index a specific forend position. This allows the Spectacular to be used in several completely different ways as far as using the forend for support and/or device use.

The action of the Spectacular is designed to have less than 5 pounds of upward bolt lift when operated from the decocked (fired) position. This allows a properly trained operator to open and close the bolt of the rifle with minimal effort using a single finger.

The Spectacular magazine housing uses SR-25 magazines (the rifle comes with a 10-round magazine). A sling quick-disconnect is located in the forward section of the magazine housing. Additionally, there is also a thumb disengaging safety designed so that your firing hand doesn't leave its firing position when activating.

The rifle uses a specially designed chrome silicon spring and firing pin to reduce lock time. The lock time of the Spectacular is less than 2 milliseconds, so a snapped shot will hit closer to aimed impact than it will from a semi-auto firearm. An average semi-auto lock time is approximately 10 milliseconds. In effect, the bullet from a Spectacular will be well on its way to the intended target before the semi-auto's bullet leaves the barrel if both triggers were activated at the same time.

Additionally, the Spectacular will shoot its groups into the same size range when loaded into the action singly or fed from its magazine. Compared to single loading versus magazine-fed operation, all semi-autos shoot groups that approach double the size. This is a major advantage for a properly designed bolt-action rifle. The rate of accurate fire from the Spectacular in a trained operators hands compares favorably with that of a semi-auto (the Spectacular has the ability to hit a 6-inch target at 600 yards multiple times without missing -- the semi-auto is incapable of doing this consistently when rounds are fired from the magazine box). This makes the Spectacular stand alone when compared to a semi-auto for accurate follow-up shots at long range. The fact the Spectacular's bolt works underneath the users face allows quick and accurate secondary shots without ever losing target acquisition by having to move your head to avoid the bolt throw of most bolt action rifles (not to mention using the shooter's complete hand to operate the bolt).

The picatinny (mil-spec.) rail on the Spectacular is very robust not only in exterior design but also due to its use of 8X40 socket head mounting screws which secure the rail to the action. This effort was made to keep a dropped rifle from shifting its zero. The receiver rail is set at 7.5 degrees of cant in order to better fit the individual shooter's ergonomic position. This allows the shooter to be more comfortable in position and translates into a higher probability of hits.

The ergonomic composite pistol grip is David Tubb's design, and was engineered to allow for correct finger placement on the trigger as well as to provide a platform for the shooting hand thumb to pivot when working the bolt. The round knurled stainless steel trigger post is designed to feel comfortable at any trigger position as well as being robust against side impacts.

The butt extension of the Spectacular securely plugs into the rear of the action and allows for the adjustable cheekpiece to be properly positioned for correct eye alignment with the scope height being used. The cheekpiece can be adjusted to accommodate virtually any reasonable scope mounting height. The fully adjustable butt assembly allows fitting of the rifle's stock length of pull as well as cast off or cast on adjustments to fit its user. A properly adjusted Spectacular allows you to lie in position for a extended length of time without having your body parts go to sleep. The Soft-Shot recoil reducer helps defray recoil when the rifle is used without a muzzle break or in heavy recoiling calibers.

The pinch block on the bottom of the butt plate is designed to be used with a bag or sand sock. Most Spectacular users employ a grip point rest with their left hand. This means that in lieu of using a rear mount rest, a grip mounted rest (left hand position) is more comfortable and useable (this sort of grip mount is not feasible on most other bolt-action rifles). This center-gripping technique is also viewed by many as more advantageous when shooting at a moving target. The clamping block on the butt assembly also features a quick-release sling attachment.

With the butt extension unplugged from the back of the action, the Spectacular allows for a degree of compactness unavailable with conventionally-stocked rifles.

When used with the recommended 6XC cartridge and the DTAC 115 grain bullet at 2950 fps, the combination is capable of effectively engaging small diameter targets past 1500 yards. In most altitudes the 6XC with the DTAC 115 will be supersonic beyond 1600 yards (compare this with a .308 shooting a 175 Sierra which becomes subsonic around 1200 yards). The 6XC also has more kinetic energy at distances past 1000 yards when compared to the .308 175 grain at 2650 fps.

When you combine the Spectacular with a DTAC Reticle scope and using the DTAC 6XC loaded ammo, target engagement from 50 to 1500 yards is easily done.
