The use of a carbon-fiber stock finished with SG-100 Cerakote provides a lightweight and durable platform for varied weather conditions and climates. This creates a rifle that can be carried during a long hunt or attached to a pack while navigating austere environments to a campsite or hunting grounds.
The incorporation of a TriggerTech adjustable trigger and the option to mount a suppressor allow hunters to tailor their Waypoint to their specific needs.
