It\u2019s a Proof carbon, and I have shot rifles with these barrels threaded on the end of actions in the past.&nbsp; They have all shot well, and I was excited to see if this one would live up to its reputation.&nbsp; The barrel is 24 inches long and threaded 5\/8&#215;24. It comes with a muzzle break attached to the end of it from the factory.&nbsp; It\u2019s a radial break that I find useless. I would prefer a thread protector over a break that will throw dirt and dust everywhere while shooting prone.&nbsp; I understand that manufacturers can produce these breaks for almost the same price as a thread protector, but I wish they would come up with a better design.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before I fired a single shot, I took it off and replaced it with my Odin Works Enduro suppressor.&nbsp; I left all five baffles on the suppressor for this rifle, as it\u2019s not meant to be a lightweight gun to start with.&nbsp; The Enduro did a great job of taming the percussion and recoil out of the rifle.&nbsp; With it attached, it was enjoyable to shoot.&nbsp; I am very sensitive to percussion, and this is a must for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-accuracy\">Accuracy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I was able to get four different factory loads for the Sawtooth, which is chambered in 7PRC.&nbsp; The gun came with a Sig Sauer Whiskey 6 3x18x44 mounted to it. I used this scope for load testing.&nbsp; During testing, I knew that I wasn\u2019t getting all the accuracy out of the gun that it was capable of.&nbsp; The crosshairs of the scope are a little too thick for precision shooting, and the glass is not as clear as I would have liked it to be.&nbsp; I felt as though I could squeeze at least another tenth of an inch out of the groups with a better scope. All groups were fired at 100 yards, and each shot was chronographed with my Garmin Xero.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-hornady-180-gr-eldm\">Hornady 180 Gr ELDM<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>First shots down range were the Hornady Match 180 grain ELDMs.&nbsp; They shot .674 inches with an average speed of 2831 FPS and an extreme spread of 15 FPS.&nbsp; With a G7 BC of .360, this load is an absolute long-range tack driver.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"216311\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_0584-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Sig Sauer Cross Sawtooth Magnum 7 PRC \" class=\"wp-image-216311\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Hornady Match 180 gr.

It has positive engagement and disengagement as you cycle; you definitely know what it\u2019s doing.&nbsp; It just doesn\u2019t do it with a buttery smooth feel of a Tikka, Seekins PH3, or even a Browning.&nbsp; I\u2019ve been trying to come up with a better description than \u201cclunky\u201d for it, but so far that\u2019s the adjective that fits best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It does cycle flawlessly, which is what\u2019s important.&nbsp; The bolt has three locking lugs and a 60-degree throw.&nbsp; It travels back in a channel that is cut into the stock, making it impossible to torque the bolt out of alignment when shooting in uncomfortable positions or trying to rack it as quickly as possible.&nbsp; Knowing you\u2019re going to be able to feed a round into the chamber no matter how you cycle the bolt is a good thing, especially when shooting in high-pressure environments such as combat engagements or PRS tournaments, where time is money.&nbsp; The action comes with a 20 MOA rail mounted on the top of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_1382-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Sig Sauer Cross Sawtooth 7 PRC action\" class=\"wp-image-216317\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_1382-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_1382-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_1382-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_1382-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_1382-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_1382-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The action on the Sawtooth left a little to be desired.

After taking it down to 2.1 lbs, the sponginess on the back end of the pull before the break went away.&nbsp; It is now good enough for what I consider precision shooting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-sawtooth-stock\">Sawtooth Stock<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The stock on the Sawtooth rifle is awesome, and it has room for improvement.&nbsp; The forend has Mlok everywhere you could need to mount anything to it.&nbsp; I put a swivel stud adapter for a Harris bipod on this one.&nbsp; There is also approximately 4 inches of arca rail located on the back of the forend near the magwell for shooting off of a tripod.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It accepts AICS-style magazines. The one it came with holds six rounds of 7 PRC.&nbsp; It has ambidextrous mag releases located on both sides of the trigger guard.&nbsp; It also has ambidextrous AR-style safety and an AR-style <a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/top-five-types-revolver-grips\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"hunt365-sig-sauer-cross-sawtooth-magnum\" title=\"SIG Sauer Cross Sawtooth Magnum\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"359\">pistol grip<\/a>.&nbsp; I found that the pistol grip made the rifle cumbersome to shoot with the end of my trigger finger. I wound up having my shooting hand mostly off the pistol grip to break shots the way I felt most comfortable.&nbsp; With my hand securely on the grip, my finger would be resting past my last knuckle on my finger for contact with the trigger.&nbsp; If this were my personal rifle, I would swap the grip out for one I preferred.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-it-folds\">It Folds!<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The folding stock is a home run, making the long rifle (especially after adding 9 inches of suppressor) manageable.&nbsp; I was able to put it into my Eberlestock pack and ride my motorcycle with it.&nbsp; Without the folding stock, it would have been too long and caught on every branch and limb.&nbsp; It did stick in the open position after I took it for a four-wheeler ride, though, and I had to use a screwdriver to get it to function again.&nbsp; As far as I can tell, the mechanism that allows the stock to fold and open got gunked up with dust and debris and what looked like the start of some rust.&nbsp; After cleaning and applying WD-40, it was working again.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The buttstock is also fully adjustable for both length of pull and cheek weld..&nbsp; While I didn\u2019t feel the need to adjust either for my shooting style, it\u2019s nice to have the option.&nbsp; It also has a bag rider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_1392-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Sig Sauer Cross Sawtooth Magnum 7PRC\" class=\"wp-image-216318\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_1392-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_1392-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_1392-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_1392-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_1392-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_1392-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The folding stock on the Sig Cross Sawtooth is great.

How would the Sig Cross Sawtooth perform during real hunting scenarios, and not from a bench? The first critter I came across while packing the Sawtooth was a coyote.&nbsp; He was working his way towards me and would come into my wind fairly quickly.&nbsp; I got set up in prone, ranged where I thought he would stop, and dialed the elevation.&nbsp; The shot was only 318 yards, and the 180 ELDM hit right where the cross hairs were placed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The second coyote was a better scenario for the Sawtooth. It was 611 yards away, and it knew I was there.&nbsp; I once again dropped prone, ranged where I thought it would stop, dialed the elevation, and sent the 180 ELDM as soon as it stopped, knowing he wouldn\u2019t hold still for long.&nbsp; Almost double the yardage as the first coyote, but the result was the same.&nbsp; The bullet impacted exactly where the crosshairs were, even though I was shooting fast.&nbsp;&nbsp;In case you&#8217;re wondering, a 7 PRC makes a mess out of coyotes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_0656-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Coyote shot with 180 eldm\" class=\"wp-image-216319\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_0656-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_0656-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_0656-150x112.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_0656-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_0656-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_0656-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">This coyote was shot with the Sig Cross Sawtooth at 611 yards.

ELDX performed perfectly, expanding and leaving a large exit hole in the bear\u2019s vitals.&nbsp; Bears are notoriously tough, and even though he was dead on his feet, the bear still tried to run across the clearing to thick, nasty cover where it would be hard to recover him.&nbsp; My friend very calmly racked another round and sent it at the running bear, miss!&nbsp; He racked another round, adjusted for the running shot, and hit the bear solidly, knocking him off of his feet before he entered the thicket.&nbsp; Even with two well-placed bullets in it, the bear still clung to life for another 30 seconds or so before it expired. They are very tough animals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"216320\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_0803-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Sig Sauer Cross Sawtooth 7PRC with bear\" class=\"wp-image-216320\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_0803-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_0803-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_0803-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_0803-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_0803-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/IMG_0803-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">A bear taken with the Sig Cross Sawtooth rifle.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-on-your-radar\">On Your Radar<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I lived in Custer County, Idaho, for a decade of my life, which is home to the Sawtooth Mountain range, and I would not attempt to pack the Sig Cross Sawtooth Magnum into them.&nbsp; Sig claims a weight of 8.1 pounds, and I felt every ounce of it while packing it around this spring.&nbsp; After a scope, rings, loaded mag, sling, bipod, and suppressor, if you want to be civilized, you&#8217;re going to have a hunting weight of closer to 12 lbs.&nbsp; &nbsp; While I would not personally purchase the Sawtooth as a hunting rifle, that doesn\u2019t mean someone else shouldn\u2019t.&nbsp; If weight doesn\u2019t deter you, then this rifle should be on your radar.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>READ MORE HERE: <a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/benelli-lupo-hpr-bolt-action-rifle-tested-and-reviewed\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"hunt365-sig-sauer-cross-sawtooth-magnum\" title=\"SIG Sauer Cross Sawtooth Magnum\">Benelli\u2019s Lupo HPR Bolt-Action Rifle\u2014Tested and Reviewed<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-final-sawtooth-thoughts-heavy-and-accurate\">Final Sawtooth Thoughts &#8211; Heavy and Accurate <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Sig has very wisely partnered with Proof, and that relationship has resulted in a very accurate rifle that is capable of shooting factory ammunition out to very long distances very consistently.&nbsp; The Sawtooth comes with a sub-moa guarantee, and it easily held up that guarantee with every type of factory ammunition I put through it (even with a scope that was costing it tenths of an inch). I have not found that to be a common theme among rifles.&nbsp; Generally, you can find one factory load out of four that shoots 1 MOA.&nbsp; The Sig Cross Sawtooth shot all four of them well under 1 MOA.&nbsp; I would not hesitate to use this rifle as a sniper rifle for either Law Enforcement or Military purposes.&nbsp; After killing his bear, my friend told me that he wants to buy the Sig Cross Sawtooth Magnum to use as his hunting rifle.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I do think that SIG could offer another edition of the Sawtooth, say a lightweight edition.&nbsp; There are a lot of places to shave weight off of this rifle (I think a 20 oz reduction could be easily achieved),&nbsp;and I\u2019m sure that there are a few companies who already offer some aftermarket parts or are currently working on it.&nbsp; The only thing I would recommend Sig does not change on the Cross Sawtooth is the Proof Barrel.
