The stock comes with a proprietary bedding system called "Ever-Rest" which consists of a metal block around the front action screw. The rifle was launched in two variants; "Classic" with a walnut stock and "Classic XT" with a black synthetic stock. Several other variants have since been introduced, including:


 * Artemis
 * Classic
 * Classic XTA
 * Classic XT
 * Forest
 * Forest XT
 * GTI
 * Highland XTX
 * Select

The receiver has an outside profile similar to the Remington 700 which allows for the use of standard Remington 700 scope pattern scope mount.

The bolt has 6 locking lugs and a 60 degree bolt throw, and locks directly into the barrel instead of into the receiver. The barrel is mounted to the receiver without action threads with a press fit and heat.
