Escort Shotguns just announced the release of an all-new line of bolt-action rifles. The line offers models chambered in .308 or .30-06, with barrel lengths ranging from 18.5 to 24 inches.

Escort ERX Series Bolt-Action Rifle

Based on the iconic Remington 700 action, trigger, magazine and optic footprints, the ERX brings plenty of versatility. The modular design offers the .308 with an 18.5-inch barrel. The .30-06 versions come with 20- or 24-inch barrels. All versions employ a 1:10 twist rate.

The 4140 CRMO steel barrel features button rifling, with a gas nitride treatment with black chrome plating for protection and durability. An included muzzle brake fits to 5/8″-24 threads. The AICS compatible magazine fed rifle adds new options to level up available bolt action rifles. The thumb paddle magazine release at the front of the metal trigger guard makes reloading quick and easy. Safety is a standard and easy to use safety switch that takes guesswork out of safe operation. The bolt release is conveniently located opposite the safety switch on the left side of the receiver.

An M16-style extractor enhances the user experience. Drilled and tapped with a 6-48 pattern, the platform accepts Rem 700 optic footprints.

All-Weather Design

ERX Series Rifles are suitable for all weather conditions. The action sits in in a synthetic stock packed with features. QD sling mounts and sling studs are integrated into the front and rear of the stock, offering various carry options. Likewise, expert control is provided with an inlaid soft rubber grip and forearm sections. An adjustable elevation cheek rest makes optics choices straightforward as users can adjust their shooting position based on the optic and not be limited by specific optics choices. The rear of the stock is equipped with an adjustable length of pull by use of the included 3 – 10mm spacers for a custom fit. The stock is then capped with a soft rubber butt pad designed to efficiently reduce felt recoil.

Attachments and accessories are easily fitted to the ERX Series Rifles with an integrated Picatinny accessory rail at the front of the stock under the barrel. By incorporating the rail, adjustable cheek rest, metal trigger guard, and REM700 spec footprints, users can outfit their ERX Rifle for specific needs or hunting requirements.
