Kinetic Research Group had their new Bravo Chassis on display at the SHOT Show.
After several years of development, Kinetic Research Group is finally releasing the SOTIC rifle. At the heart of the SOTIC rifle is a custom action that was designed in-house and offers an end user the ability to quickly swap out barrels.
SPECS—SOTIC Rifle

Augmenting their current line of accessories, Kinetic Research Group is now offering their Enclosed Forend for the Whiskey-3, Bravo and X-Ray Chassis systems. The Enclosed Forend is an aluminum M-LOK forend that replaces the factory polymer forend. The Enclosed Forend has a Picatinny/1913 style rail at the 12 o’clock position. This is ideal for mounting a clip-on night vision or thermal system. It is also ideal if you want to mount a Charlie TARAQ prism for extreme long range shooting. The Enclosed Forend sells for $270.

Pricing & Availability
Though it was released late in 2017, Kinetic Research Group also had their new and very affordable Bravo Chassis on display. The Bravo Chassis is available for the Howa 1500, Tikka T3 and Remington 700 style short and long actions. The Bravo Chassis has a starting price of $349 and is available in black, flat dark earth and Sako green.
Stay tuned for a detailed review that will be available in the coming weeks. I think that the Bravo Chassis is one of the best chassis available. If you want a simple chassis, buy the Bravo. If you need to attach lights, lasers and night vision, look at the Whiskey 3 and X-Ray Chassis systems. You cannot go wrong with a product from Kinetic Research Group.
Kinetic Research Group’s SOTIC Rifle is mated to their Whiskey-3 Chassis and is available in fixed and folding stock versions. The SOTIC rifle is currently available for pre-order in .308 Winchester and 6.5 Creedmoor. The fixed stock version will retail for $4,250, and the folding will retail for $4,650.
