Why This Rifle Wins
Having tested this against factory rifles at our 100-yard range in Flagstaff, the Edge Black Phantom consistently groups under 0.5 MOA with handloads. The carbon fiber barrel reduces weight without sacrificing accuracy – something I’ve only seen in rifles costing $1,000 more. The 3-lug action cycles smoother than any Remington 700 clone I’ve handled.
