Breaking down a precision rifle setup featuring a 29” Preferred Barrel, Atlas Tactical action, Gun Warrior chassis, and premium optics
At Patriot Outdoors, we’re always excited to showcase feature builds that push the limits of precision shooting. In this setup, we bring together a 6mm Creedmoor chambered barrel, Cowboy Atlas Tactical action, and a Gun Warrior Gen 7 chassis—a combination built for accuracy, stability, and style.
The Build
Let’s break it down piece by piece.
The Barrel: Precision at the Core
- Krieger 29-inch Preferred Barrel Blanks barrel
- Chambered in 6mm Creedmoor
- 1:7.5 twist rate for stabilising heavy, high-BC bullets
- M24 contour for balance between rigidity and manageable weight
The 6mm Creedmoor has earned its reputation as a favourite among long-range and PRS shooters. Known for flat trajectory and reduced recoil compared to 6.5 Creedmoor, it delivers superb consistency at extended ranges. The Preferred Barrel Blanks craftsmanship ensures match-grade accuracy.
The Action: Cowboy Atlas Tactical
- Kelbly Short action with .308 bolt face
- Compatible with multiple short-action calibres sharing the .308 bolt pattern
- Built for repeatable precision and smooth cycling
The Atlas Tactical action is a workhorse in the precision rifle world, designed with reliability in mind. Its side bolt release and precision machining make it a trusted choice for both competition and field use.
The Chassis: Gun Warrior Gen 7
- Full-length top rail for optics and accessories
- Ample M-LOK slots on the bottom and sides for bipods, grips, or weights
- Integrated Picatinny rail at the front
- Finished in a bold pure white colourway
Beyond looks, the Gun Warrior Gen 7 chassis offer adjustability and ergonomics that matter. The adjustable cheek piece and length of pull allow shooters to fine-tune their position for comfort and accuracy.
A thick, rubberised pistol grip improves control, while ambidextrous features make it friendly for both left- and right-handed shooters.
Trigger & Optics
- Trigger: Bix’n Andy Dakota, tuned down to a crisp 1.8 lbs
- Scope: Element Helix HD 2-16Ă—50 with Raptor reticle
- Mounts: Element Optics adjustable rings
The Dakota trigger is renowned for its clean break and minimal creep, making it a strong choice for precision builds. Paired with the Element Helix HD scope, shooters gain both clarity and flexibility with a magnification range suitable for mid- to long-range engagements.
Final Touches
To complete the build, an Atlas bipod was added to the front rail for stability in prone or benchrest positions. Together, the barrel, action, chassis, trigger, and optics make for a rifle that balances precision engineering with practical usability.
Why This Build Stands Out
- 6mm Creedmoor chambering for long-range efficiency
- Atlas Tactical action ensures durability and smooth cycling
- Adjustable Gun Warrior Gen 7 chassis provides ergonomic comfort
- Crisp Dakota trigger enhances shot consistency
- Element Helix HD optics complete the package
This custom rifle is more than just visually striking—it’s designed to perform in both competitive shooting and demanding field conditions.
Final Thoughts
Whether you’re a competitive shooter or a precision enthusiast, a custom 6mm Creedmoor build like this highlight how premium components can come together to deliver unmatched accuracy and control.
