The Franklin Armory Praefector-M Militia Model Rifle in 6.5 Creedmoor (brand part no. 0010036BLK) is an AR-10-pattern rifle built on Franklin Armory proprietary billet upper and lower receivers. It pairs a 20-inch medium-contour barrel with a 14-inch FSR handguard, a Magpul PRS stock and a custom-tuned trigger. The 1:8 twist stabilizes the heavy bullets that make 6.5 Creedmoor a precision favorite, and the Triumvir muzzle device finishes the barrel. It is a good fit for long-range practice, hunting and a general-purpose precision rifle.
