Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Long Range Hunting Barrett Fieldcraft

I'll never get rid of mine. 6.5X55 shooting 130 grain Accubonds or Swift Siroccos' pushed at 2775 with RL19 and, like Stick said, it's a hammer. Under .5 inch groups all day long. I've killed several west Texas whitetails, some feral barbado/mouflon cross sheep, wild hogs up to about 275 and killed 2 big south Texas white tails this year.

They are ruggedly fhuqking reliable and shoot like a dirty fhuqking bastard to boot. Hint.








Just sayin'...............

Barrett Fieldcraft action bolt torque? Front and rear?

I want to make sure mine is right.

My 30-06 will keep all the loads I made for it inside 3/4" for three shots. Wish it was a 6mm CM, but I got it when dreaming of an elk hunt and I can live with 130 gr TTSX at 3300+ that shoots in one hole at 100 yards, or 125 gr BT at 2850 that groups the same.

Since Montanas were mentioned, the one I have played with should have never left the factory...maybe a 6 CM barrel would fix it...

Lilja is the easy button there. You can order the factory dupe contour and 12-16wks later it's on your doorstep. Thread, chamber, put the stock on and rock on.

If it’s stupid accurate, why would you Fugk with action bolt torque? Sounds like it is right.

Granite View Sports has a Fieldcraft 6CM untreaded for $2750.......I have same plus a threaded one but they aren't leaving at any price.....well almost.....incredible little rifles.

Because I took it out of the stock to give it a good cleaning.

You don’t do that?

I don’t own one but I found a Fieldcraft manual here. 80in-lb front screw and 36in-lb rear screw.

Thanks Mod7,

I googled it after I posted and found the same result.

I’ve had this rifle since the second year of production, and never had it out of the stock before.

People are way too orgasmic about fieldcrafts. It’s the same as people wanting fixed power scopes again. They quit making them because only a few people were buying. Just like when colt was labeling them. The history is the same. Just buy a freaking tikka

You know as much about the fieldcraft as you do about testing scopes.

Never an original thought. The group tells you what to believe. Probably was a Covid sheep too.

Yeah, you got me there. I’ve never even seen a fieldcraft in real life.

What was Colt doing with the Fieldcraft?

Why, they were labeling them, of course.

It was the playground & C-clamp special edition.

That was nearly one of the funniest videos ever...

Pardon my ignorance…do you know if it is factory? Did Barrett make a 6 Creed in the Fieldcraft?

I may drive down and check it out.

They did Ted. Get on the road!
