Colt M2012 308 Winchester Black & Stainless/Tan Bolt Action Rifle – 22in

Colt M2012 Bolt-Action Rifle .308 Winchester 22 Inch – Tan Carbon Fiber Precision Variant

The Colt M2012 in this configuration is a bolt-action precision rifle chambered in .308 Winchester, featuring a tan carbon-fiber stock and a match-grade barrel system. Like other M2012 variants, it is designed for long-range accuracy and hunting applications, with a strong emphasis on rigidity, consistency, and controlled shot placement.

This version stands out primarily due to its Tan Manners carbon fiber stock, which replaces the more traditional laminated hardwood variants.

Carbon Fiber Stock Design

The Tan Manners carbon fiber stock is built for:

• High stiffness-to-weight ratio

• Improved vibration damping during firing

• Enhanced long-range consistency

• Environmental resistance compared to wood or laminate

Even though this variant is slightly heavier than some stock configurations, the rigidity benefits often appeal to precision shooters.

Barrel and Accuracy System

The 22-inch .308 barrel is a key performance component:

• Fluted for weight reduction and heat dissipation

• Match-grade chrome-moly or stainless construction (as described)

• 6-groove button rifling for consistent projectile stabilization

• Optimized for long-range precision shooting (steel targets and hunting distances)

Combined with the Timney trigger, the system is tuned for predictable, repeatable shot breaks.

Trigger and Controls

• Timney single-stage adjustable trigger provides a crisp, tunable pull

• Lever-style safety offers simple and fast operation

• Designed for precision shooting discipline rather than rapid engagement

Optics and Mounting

The integrated Picatinny rail allows:

• Scope mounting for long-range optics

• Consistent return-to-zero platform compatibility

• Flexible setup for hunting or target configurations
