WEST HARTFORD, CONN. (January 9, 2023)<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Colt proudly announces the launch of its new CBX Precision Rifle. The CBX is an advanced bolt-action chassis rifle with features ideal for competitive shooters. \u201cOur engineers excelled in the design of the CBX Rifle,\u201d remarked Jessica Treglia, Colt Manufacturing, Director of Commercial Products. \u201cWe\u2019ve created a premium precision rifle worthy of the Colt name.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The CBX rifle is customizable for a shooters\u2019 fit, and its modular accommodates aftermarket accessories, including, suppressors, weights, AICS magazines, and optic\u00a0mounts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The modularity of a chassis rifle system makes them a popular choice for competitive target shooters. The CBX\u2019s user-adjustable length-of-pull and cheek weld allow a custom shooter fit. The rifle\u2019s aluminum chassis features a 15-inch extended forend with an ARCA rail and M-LOK\u00ae slots for mounting accessories. An aggressive barricade stop establishes a solid shooting platform in any position. Enhanced ergonomics include an angled pistol grip, built-in thumb shelf, QD cups, and an ambidextrous magazine release, providing a user-friendly shooting experience.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The CBX rifle system features a flat-bottom receiver\u2014a design that reduces flex and improves accuracy. Its 60\u00b0 bolt throw allows for faster cycling times and increased optic compatibility, while its ergonomic 2-position tang safety is intuitive and quick to operate. A user-adjustable (2.5-5lb), crisp trigger allows a customizable shooter feel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Colt optimized the CBX\u2019s carbon steel, button-rifled barrel\u2019s length for ballistic performance. The 6.5 Creedmoor sports a 26-inch barrel, while the .308 Win uses a 24-inch barrel, and both feature 5\/8-24 UNEF threaded muzzles with thread protectors. A black nitride treatment protects barrels from corrosion while providing a tactical matte finish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other features included with the CBX rifle system are a 1-piece Picatinny rail with Rem700 compatible scope mounts and a detachable 5-round Magpul AICS magazine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Colt backs the CBX Precision Rifle with a sub-MOA accuracy guarantee. \u201cWe are proud of the CBX rifle platform and know shooters will love how it performs,\u201d added Treglia. The CBX Precision Rifle is available at Colt now at dealers nationwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
