Rifles Descriptions

Bushmaster Gas Piston 90294

The Bushmaster Gas Piston System Rifles bring new levels of reliability to the “AR” type rifle platform by eliminating carbon build up, gas leaks and heat within the Upper Receiver. The Gas Piston System operates by tapping gas pressure off the barrel much like the systems found on AK-47s and FALs * Functions with a wider range of ammunition - less gas pressure - lower cyclic rate * Offers improved reliability and control - with cleaner operation and reduced recoil * Keeps carbon build up and powder residue from reaching - and fouling the Upper Receiver and Bolt Carrier * A Detented Plug in the Gas Block allows easy cleaning of the Systems’ Hard Chrome Plated Piston

Hornady 82681 Dangerous Game 500-416 Nitro Express

The Hornady DGX (Dangerous Game Expanding) bullet is constructed of copper clad steel and a high antimony lead core. The DGX bullet incorporates a patented InterLock feature that locks the core and jacket together, improving retained weight of the expanded bullet. Each caliber utilizes the same profile for both the DGX and DGS bullets, offering uniformity, which is ideal when shooting both bullet types through the same firearm. Buds Item #: 1044
