Key Features
Precision Fully Rifled Barrel
The core of this Fieldmaster’s performance is its 23-inch, heavy contour, fully rifled barrel. This design stabilizes sabot slugs, mitigating yaw and ensuring repeatable accuracy at extended ranges. The heavy profile enhances thermal stability during extended use, maintaining consistent point of impact.
Integrated Cantilever Scope Mount
A factory-integrated cantilever scope mount provides a stable and consistent mounting platform for optics. This design ensures that the scope remains affixed to the barrel assembly, maintaining zero independent of receiver flex or furniture shifts, which is critical for precise shot placement in the field.
Durable Construction and Finish
The barrel and receiver feature a blued finish with a non-glare matte treatment on all exterior metalwork. This finish provides robust corrosion resistance and minimizes reflectivity in field conditions. The black synthetic stock and forend are engineered for durability and weather resistance, providing a secure grip in adverse environments.
Reliable Pump-Action System
Building on the proven Remington 870 action, this Fieldmaster variant delivers consistent and dependable cycling. The pump-action mechanism is recognized for its robust construction and positive shell extraction/ejection, ensuring operational readiness under demanding conditions.
