Learn More BOLT ACTION RIFLES, REACH OUT AND TOUCH STEELWell known for their AR-15 rifles, Aero Precision is officially in the bolt action rifle game as of today! The Solus is a Remington 700 pattern rifle that uses Savage pattern small shank barrels or Zermatt Arms pre-fit shouldered barrels and AICS pattern magazines, but the features and cool stuff don’t stop there.Aero is offering this as a complete competition rifle using an Aero Precision chassis or a less expensive option using a KRG chassis, with more models on their way. Both use TriggerTech triggers. You can also get the Solus as a stripped .478 Bolt Face short action or the chassis as a standalone chassis. Turnkey options and DIY options give you the flexibility to choose exactly what you want.We’ve only gotten to shoot the Solus a couple of times, but we’ve been very impressed so far. Great bolt lift, great chassis, great options. Stripped actions are $900 MSRP, chassis is $800 MSRP, with the complete competition rifle coming in at $2,000 and the Solus Bravo at $1,625. The only caliber offered is 6.5 Creedmoor, but more caliber options are coming very soon. We’ll have a complete review in the works, so check back for a ton more information when that drops!Action Features:Remington 700 Short Action Footprint Integral 20 MOA biased top rail Integral recoil lug Magnum-sized ejection port Sized to feed and eject cartridges with up to 3.00″ OAL Compatible with AICS and AIAW detachable box magazines Trigger installed via hangerBolt Features:60-degree bolt throw 3-lug interchangeable bolt head Dual ejectors “Cock on lift” bolt designMaterials:Receiver body- 416 stainless steel Bolt- 17-4 stainless steel Firing pin- S7 tool steelCompatibility:Barrel: Savage Small Shank W/ Barrel nut and Shouldered Zermatt Origin Pattern Pre-Fit Barrels Trigger: Remington 700 (no bolt release)Explore RECOILweb:M&P M2.0 Compact In .45 ACP ReleasedTrue Detective Season 1: Grand Theft Auto StyleRuger's Newest Custom Shop 10/22 Competition RifleGo Learn, Atlanta: Defensive Handgun NEXT STEP: Download Your Free Target Pack from RECOILFor years, RECOIL magazine has treated its readers to a full-size (sometimes full color!) shooting target tucked into each big issue.
