- Includes a 10-round Magpul PMAG, which may not suit hunters wanting a higher-capacity or different magazine setup.
- The 22" Sendero-profile barrel and competition chassis are oriented toward precision use, making the rifle less compact than a lighter field rifle.
- Compatibility is centered on AICS and AIAIW magazines and Remington 700 short-action footprint, so accessory and magazine choices should be checked for fit.
