Sabatti Bolt Action Rifle Tactical EVO US Desert 6.5 Creedmoor 22" Barrel
The Sabatti Tactical EVO US is a shorter, lighter variant of the Tactical EVO bolt-action rifle, specifically conceived for PRS (Precision Rifle Series) shooting competitions.
The steel action, with three bolt locking lugs and a fast 60-degrees bolt throw, was designed specifically for all those uses that require resistance, long service life, and accuracy.
The Sabatti Tactical EVO US mounts one of the best actions currently available on the global bolt-action rifles market. The cocking bolt knob is interchangeable, and the surface finish on the action and the bolt ensures a peerlessly silent and smooth operation.
The heavy competition-oriented barrel boasts Sabatti own MRR multi-radial rifling pattern, whose excellent performances are highly regarded by experts worldwide. A 5/8” thread at the muzzle – covered by a removable thread protector – allows the use of a vast choice of muzzle devices.
The synthetic stock is manufactured out of a lighter polymer than the one used for the stock of the baseline Sabatti Tactical EVO rifle, and comes with QD sling swivel cups; the two stocks however share the same outer finish, offering a secure and firm grip and a high level of resistance to wear. The cheek riser is adjustable.
The action of the Sabatti Tactical EVO US is coupled to the stock in a completely innovative manner – it’s left “suspended” to float over the stock by two supports that all but eliminate all coupling tension and drastically improve shooting accuracy.

The information below comes from our Gun Caliber Dictionary and is for
general reference only. It does not describe the specifications of this
particular item.
The 6.5 Creedmoor was introduced by Hornady in 2008. Uniquely, it was designed for accuracy with long-range competition in mind. Using a 308 Winchester (30 TC, 300 Savage) case shortened to 1.920 inches, it will feed through the shortest existing bolt actions, but remains supersonic to well beyond 1000 yards. Standard velocity is a 140-grain .264-inch bullet at 2820 fps, also making it an effective but mild-recoiling medium-range hunting cartridge. The 6.5 Creedmoor was introduced with little fanfare, but after it started winning matches shooters took notice. This is an unusual phenomenon for a cartridge to suddenly "take off" years after its introduction, but that's the story of the 6.5 Creedmoor--after about 2016 it became one of the most-talked-about cartridges, with both rifle and ammunition offerings expanding rapidly.
