Rock River Arms, one of the industry’s most respected names in modern sporting rifles and pistols, is honored to receive the 2022 Shooting Illustrated Golden Bullseye “Rifle of the Year” Award. For the 2022 contention, Shooting Illustrated’s seven-member committee selected the Rock River Arms RBG customizable bolt-action chassis rifle available in .308/7.62 and 6.5 Creedmoor.
“The NRA Publications Golden Bullseye Award is the highwater mark for the shooting industry,” said Rock River Arms owner Chuck Larson. “That the Shooting Illustrated’s selection committee picked the Rock River Arms RBG to receive its 2022 Golden Bullseye ‘Rifle of the Year’ award is both thrilling and humbling. We invested a lot of R&D and manufacturing effort to bring the RBG platform to market with an eye toward meeting the needs of the discerning long-range competitive shooter and hunter, and recognition from the nation’s vanguard shooting publication certainly validates the result.”
The RBG is a customizable rifle featuring RRA’s proprietary short action and an air-gauged, cryo-treated Wilson stainless steel barrel available in 20-, 22- or 24-inch length. The barreled action sits in a KRG aluminum chassis featuring an AICS-compatible detachable box magazine. Other features include a precision Triggertech trigger, oversized bolt handle, 20 MOA picatinny rail base, and factory-guaranteed sub-MOA accuracy. In addition to the optional barrel lengths, the RBG chassis is offered in black, tan or green finish.
