FN America SCAR 20S NRCH Semi-Automatic Rifle 6.5 Creedmoor 20" Barrel (1)-10Rd Magazine Hogue Rubber Grips With Finger Grooves Black Finish
The legendary FN SCAR® 20S is upgraded with Non-Reciprocating Charging Handles. Perfectly calibrated for long-range fire, the FN SCAR 20S delivers surgical precision, with an enhanced set of controls to enable any shooting position or optic choice. The rugged, monolithic upper receiver with full-length MIL-STD-1913 rail provides more space for rail-mounted accessories, and a precision buttstock fits any shooter with adjustable length of pull and cheek rest height. The FN SCAR 20S is the benchmark for long-range precision from a gas driven piston platform, delivering a highly accurate and proven design for target shooting and law enforcement applications.
-Adaptable: New, non-reciprocating, dual charging handles allow you to shoot from any position without interfering with optics or grip style, while the fully-ambidextrous operating controls and adjustable buttstock instantly adapts to any shooter.
-Reliable: Short-stroke gas piston system with an adjustable low-flash gas regulator. The reduced reciprocating mass of the new bolt carrier produces less felt recoil, making a soft-shooting rifle even easier to manage.
-Accurate: Fully free-floating, cold hammer-forged, chrome-lined barrel and one-piece machined aluminum upper receiver deliver sub-minute accuracy. A 2-stage Geissele trigger in SCAR 20S brings 1000-M shots in range.
-Tested: FN’s most tested rifle platform remains the choice of the U.S. military’s most elite fighting forces. Rugged, precise and dependable, all SCARs have earned their stripes, proven with decades of hard use.

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.
