The APF Varmint 2.0 .243 Win OD Green is a semi-automatic AR-10 varmint rifle from APF (brand part no. RI262OD), built in Alexandria, Minnesota. It is chambered in .243 Winchester with a 1-in-10-inch twist, and a Butcher-16 muzzle brake sits at the muzzle to reduce felt recoil. APF pairs a nickel boron bolt carrier group with its drop-in 3.5-pound flat trigger, then adds a Magpul PRS-Lite stock, a MOE grip and an OD Green Cerakote coat. It suits hunters who want a green rifle for coyotes and prairie dogs.
