R1 RIFLE
Just imagine a .300 Winchester Magnum that feels like you’re shooting a light .270 and you’ll understand what this rifle from Benelli is all about. The R1, with its ComforTech™ recoil dampening stock, cuts felt recoil. To put it more graphically, other high-powered rifles kick about twice as hard.
Three different thicknesses of quick-change pads for adjusting length-of-pull and three different comb inserts to adjust for drop are available. Also included is a totally unique accessory —: a shim kit to make precise stock adjustments for drop and cast, providing a truly custom fit.
Optional open sights feature a fully adjustable rear blade and front sight with a special red filament insert.
The Benelli R1 with ComforTech™ features a high-tech texturing on both the stock and fore-end called GripTight™. This synthetic over-coating feels almost tacky to the touch, giving a sure grip wet or dry, with bare hands or even gloves. GripTight™ is totally weather resistant and completely bonded to the surface of the synthetic material of the stock and fore-end.
Usually only found on custom-made rifles, the R1’s barrel is cryogenically frozen to -300° F, which changes the steel at the molecular level. The result: better barrel harmonics providing superior accuracy.
Quick detachable magazine holds three to four rounds, depending on caliber.
The R1 is perfect for shooters of all sizes. Optional recoil pads are available for the desired length-of-pull (13-3/8", 14", 14-1/8").
This optional special synthetic raised gel comb insert not only cushions the shooter’s cheek during recoil, it also allows the cheek to slide along the surface for added comfort.
