The MRX Bison is available in two configurations, the “scout” and the “ranger.” The scout is a true short barreled scout rifle with a full shroud for mounting optics, short range red dot sights and magnifiers. The “ranger” is a light hunting rifle that has the ability to shoot to 1 MOA accuracy and has a picatinny rail attached to the top of the action for mounting scope rings or quick release mounts.
