This isn't just another AR; it's a meticulously crafted instrument designed to meet the rigorous demands of discerning shooters, from competitive marksmen and serious hunters to tactical professionals and dedicated enthusiasts seeking peak performance.

Are you searching for an AR platform rifle that can consistently deliver sub-MOA accuracy at extended ranges? Do you need a semi-automatic rifle capable of performing reliably in diverse and challenging conditions? Perhaps you're a long-range shooter looking to leverage the ballistic advantages of the 6.5 Creedmoor cartridge in a familiar, modular AR-10 package. The CheyTac CT10 is engineered precisely for these scenarios, offering a compelling blend of precision, durability, and user-centric features.

What makes the CheyTac CT10 6.5 Creedmoor a top-tier choice for precision and reliability?

This rifle is built from the ground up to offer superior performance in various applications, addressing common questions like: "What's the best semi-automatic rifle for long-range target shooting?", "Which AR-10 platform offers the best out-of-the-box accuracy?", or "How can I achieve consistent groupings at 1000 yards with an AR-style rifle?" The CT10 provides the answers through its thoughtful design and premium component integration:

• Exceptional Long-Range Capability: With an effective range exceeding 1000 yards, the CT10 truly shines when precision at distance is paramount. This capability is directly supported by its 18" #416 Stainless Steel Black Oxide Coated barrel with a 1:8 twist rate, optimized for stabilizing a wide range of 6.5 Creedmoor bullet weights, ensuring exceptional ballistic performance. For shooters pushing the limits of their skill, this rifle provides the consistent platform needed to achieve remarkable results.
• Robust and Precision-Machined Foundation: The receiver set is precision machined from aluminum billet, providing a rigid, strong, and true foundation for all components. This attention to manufacturing quality minimizes flex and ensures optimal alignment, which is critical for maintaining consistent accuracy, shot after shot.
• Superior Trigger Control: The inclusion of a Timney 2 Stage AR TARGA trigger is a game-changer for precision shooting. Known for their crisp breaks and consistent pull, Timney triggers eliminate uncertainty in the shot process, allowing shooters to focus on fundamental marksmanship without battling a heavy or gritty trigger. A two-stage trigger provides a clear take-up followed by a defined wall, giving the shooter precise control over the moment of firing, leading to tighter groups.
• Enhanced Ergonomics and User Adaptability:
  • Ambidextrous Controls: Featuring an ambidextrous Timney 49er safety and a WarHammer Ambidextrous Charging Handle by Breek Arms, the CT10 is designed for seamless operation by both left and right-handed shooters. This crucial feature ensures rapid and intuitive manipulation of the rifle under stress or in dynamic shooting scenarios, making it highly adaptable for various users and operational environments.
  • B5 Systems Enhanced SOPMOD Stock: The B5 Systems Enhanced SOPMOD stock is revered for its robust construction, comfortable cheek weld, and secure shoulder purchase. Its 6-position adjustability allows for quick and precise length-of-pull customization, accommodating different body types, shooting positions, and gear configurations. Integrated QD mounts provide convenient sling attachment points, enhancing carry comfort and readiness.
  • B5 Systems Textured Black Polymer Pistol Grip: The B5 pistol grip offers a secure and comfortable hold, reducing fatigue during extended shooting sessions and improving recoil management. Its textured surface ensures a firm grip even in adverse conditions.

Why Choose the 6.5 Creedmoor Cartridge for Your AR Platform?

The 6.5 Creedmoor has rapidly gained popularity among shooters for its exceptional balance of ballistic efficiency, manageable recoil, and availability of high-performance ammunition. For an AR-style rifle like the CT10, this cartridge offers several key advantages:

• Excellent Ballistic Coefficient (BC): 6.5mm projectiles generally boast high ballistic coefficients, meaning they retain energy and resist wind drift more effectively than many other common rifle cartridges. This translates to flatter trajectories and less wind compensation required at long distances, simplifying holdovers and leading to higher hit probabilities.
• Manageable Recoil: Despite its impressive long-range capabilities, the 6.5 Creedmoor produces moderate recoil, especially in a semi-automatic AR-10 platform. This allows for quicker follow-up shots, reduced shooter fatigue, and a more enjoyable shooting experience, particularly during extended range sessions or competitive events where high round counts are common.
• Versatility: The 6.5 Creedmoor is highly versatile, proving effective for a variety of applications including precision target shooting, competitive shooting (PRS, NRL), and medium-to-large game hunting. The CheyTac CT10, chambered in this cartridge, becomes a multi-purpose tool for serious enthusiasts.

Advanced Features for Peak Performance and Customization

The CheyTac CT10 is not just a collection of high-end components; it's a fully integrated system designed for optimal performance:

• Adjustable Gas System: An adjustable gas block with a rifle-length stainless steel gas tube allows the shooter to fine-tune the rifle's operation based on ammunition type, suppressor use, or environmental conditions. This ensures smooth cycling, reduced recoil, and minimized wear on internal components, ultimately contributing to the rifle's longevity and reliable function.
• Captured Buffer System: The captured buffer system enhances the rifle's smooth operation by eliminating the annoying "sproing" sound common in traditional AR buffer systems and ensuring consistent recoil impulse. This small detail significantly improves the shooting experience and can contribute to better shot recovery.
• Robust Bolt Carrier Group (BCG): The 7.62mm/.308/6.5 CM BCG is built to withstand the pressures of high-volume shooting and features a properly staked gas key for uncompromising reliability. This critical component ensures consistent feeding, extraction, and ignition, which is foundational to a reliable semi-automatic rifle.
• Custom CheyTac 15" MLok Handguard: The proprietary 15-inch MLok handguard provides ample rail space for mounting accessories such as lights, lasers, bipods, and foregrips, without adding unnecessary bulk. Its slim profile enhances handling, and the MLok system offers a secure and modular attachment solution.
• Versatile Muzzle Device Options: The CT10 ships with a custom thread protector and an additional A2 Birdcage Flash Hider. This gives the user flexibility to choose their preferred muzzle device or easily install a suppressor. The 5/8x24 thread pitch is standard for .30 caliber and 6.5mm firearms, ensuring broad compatibility with aftermarket accessories.
• Integrated Accessory Mounts: A Picatinny rail with QD mounts on the handguard ensures that optics, iron sights, and other tactical accessories can be securely and easily attached, providing a highly adaptable platform.
• Magazine Compatibility: The rifle utilizes common SR-25 pattern 10-round magazines, ensuring widespread availability and interchangeability with other AR-10 platforms.

Who Can Benefit Most from the CheyTac CT10?

• Precision and Competition Shooters: For those engaged in PRS, NRL, or other long-range shooting disciplines, the CT10 offers the precision, consistency, and semi-automatic speed needed to excel. Its match-grade components and tunable gas system are invaluable for achieving competitive advantages.
• Hunters: The 6.5 Creedmoor's effectiveness on medium to large game, combined with the CT10's long-range accuracy, makes it an excellent choice for ethical hunting. The AR platform offers quick follow-up shots, which can be crucial in certain hunting scenarios.
