THE SiXGUNNER GOES AR! The Stag Arms Hunter displays excellent accuracy at 100 yards (above). The top target is the first rounds out of the bore-sighted 6.8 SPC. The scope is a Weaver 6X. Standard magazine capacity of the Stag Arms Hunter is five rounds (below). Higher capacity magazines are available if this rifle is to double for defense. I have spent most of my life shooting leverguns with straight grip stocks, and bolt actions with standard pistol grips. This is my first experience with something such as this rear-slanting, finger-grooved Hogue pistol grip and I must say I really like it, it gives such a secure feeling and snugs the rifle into the shoulder. Since this is a Hunter Model, no iron sights are provided, but in addition to the Picatinny rail on the receiver there is another abbreviated rail mounted in front of the Hogue Free Float Tube should you desire iron sights. Since it is a Hunter Model, I mounted a hunting scope, however, not just any hunting scope. 6.8MM SPC FACTORY AMMO PERFORMANCE LOAD VELOCITY GROUP SIzE (BRAND, BULLET WEIGHT, TYPE) (FPS) (INCHES) CORBON 110 DPX 2,672 7/8 REMINGTON 115 EXPRESS 2,518 3/4 REMINGTON 115 CORE-LOKT 2,543 1-3/8 SSA 110 BARNES TSX 2,664 1/2 SSA 110 SIERRA PRO HUNTER 2,604 1-1/4 SSA 115 SIERRA OTM 2,626 1/2 SSA 100 NOSLER BONDED 2,713 5/8 SSA 110 ACCUBOND 2,584 1/2 Notes: Groups the product of best 3 of 4 Shots at 100 yards.
