The Christensen Arms .308 Winchester 18″ Bead Blasted Stainless Steel Carbon Fiber Barreled Action (model 801‑16006‑03) is a precision‑ready barreled action built to serve as the heart of a high‑performance custom rifle. At its core is a match‑grade 416R stainless steel barrel wrapped in aerograde carbon fiber, combining the accuracy and consistency of a stainless bore with the weight‑saving and harmonic‑damping advantages of carbon composite construction — a signature technology used throughout Christensen Arms’ products to help maintain stable barrel harmonics and consistent performance. The 18″ length strikes a balance between compact maneuverability and efficient velocity for the .308 Winchester cartridge, making it suitable for field use, tactical platforms, or precision builds. Featuring a bead‑blasted stainless action finished with an integrated 20 MOA Picatinny rail, it provides built‑in elevation for long‑range optics, while pre‑installed trigger pins simplify the installation of your choice of premium trigger unit. With its threaded muzzle protected by a thread protector, this barreled action offers flexibility for adding brakes or suppressors later, giving custom builders a rugged, accurate, and adaptable foundation for a bespoke .308 Winchester rifle.
