Stag Arms now offers ready to go hunting solutions

NEW BRITAIN, CT – After listening to customer requests and in time for this fall's hunting season Stag Arms now offers a ready to go out of the box solution specifically designed for medium to large game hunters. Based upon the right-hand Stag 7 and left-hand Stag 7L rifles Stag Arms has added a 3x-9x power hunting scope and mount combination to the rifles which are respectively named the Stag 7-S and Stag 7L-S. Stag Arms President Mark Malkowski stated "We knew we wanted to offer hunters the best solution for coyote to elk sized game which is why our employees spent a lot of time at the range testing different scopes with our Stag 7 series hunting rifles. We found the Nikon Active Target 3x-9x scope to be the best tested scope with the rifle."

The Stag 7 series was built from the ground up as a hunting powerhouse. The rifle includes a 6.8 SPC SAAMI SPEC 2 chamber, 20.77" heavy barrel with a 1/10 twist, and target crown which is able to shoot all commercially available 6.8SPC ammunition. The 6.8 SPC cartridge was originally designed for the US military to be used in Afghanistan and has proven itself over the years as a hunting favorite due to its superior ballistics. The Hogue free-float aluminum handguard and pistol grip have a rubber surface to ensure that the shooters hands won't slip when holding the rifle even while wearing thick gloves. With a 2 pound first stage and a 3.5 pound second stage the two-stage match trigger allows for accurate shots while at the range or in the field. Finally, the proprietary Stag S7 barrel finish is designed to reduce glare and reduce the ability for game to notice it.

Attached to the rifle is the Nikon Active Target Special 3x-9x powered scope. The scope is installed using Nikon's one piece scope mount which ensures stability and trueness of accuracy. Utilizing Nikon's active target reticle and the link to their bullet drop calculator found on our website, the distance the bull's-eye will be hit for each of the drop indicators can be easily known. Unlike traditional crosshairs which can obscure your sight picture the active target reticle uses an open circle design which utilizes humans natural abilities to accurately find the center of a circle and won't obscure the target. Adjustments can easily be made as small as one-fourth minute of angle and without the need for any special tools.
The suggested retail price for the Stag 7-S is $1280.00 and the 7L-S is $1320.00. The rifles can be ordered by contacting Stag Arms sales representatives directly via phone at 860-229-9994 extension #1 or online a www.stagarms.com.
