M-LOk slots are located along the bottom and sides of the XRS forearm. Two screws hold it in place and installation is complete. The barreled action is removed from the stock and dropped into the XRS chassis. Once the rifle is safe and empty, the two action screws can be removed from the stock with a hex key. The XRS has all of these features, as well as M-LOK mounting surfaces along the front of the rifle. The rifle comes equipped with a Remington Varmint profile barrel and a Hogue over-mold stock.įrom the factory the 700 SPS doesn’t have a detachable magazine system, vertical pistol grip, length-of-pull or cheek piece adjustment. To evaluate the MDT XRS, I took a stock Remington 700 SPS from my store’s inventory. Imagine grabbing a chunk of aluminum with bare hands in cold weather, versus grabbing the same surface with covered with an injection molded skin. This mixing of materials provides a more comfortable interface for the shooter. Whereas some of their earlier products were primarily constructed of aluminum, the XRS blends the machined aluminum core with injection molded parts. As MDT grows as a company, their chassis have evolved. I’ve been shooting the MDT product line since their first chassis, the TAC21, was introduced.
The XRS is called a hybrid rifle chassis, and effort by MDT to blend the lines of a traditional rifle stock with the features common with a traditional chassis system with lines reminiscent of the MAGPUL Hunter or KRQ Bravo- but a full length 6061 aluminum core. Modular Driven Technologies (MDT), a company known for a wide range of chassis systems- TAC21, LSS-XL, ESS & ACC, has introduced a new hybrid chassis known as the XRS. Offering ease of installation, adjustment and modularity that is often superior to traditional wood or fiberglass stocks, they offer shooters a performance upgrade for their rifle.
Chassis systems are now common on precision rifles.
