Hydra 6.5 Kit

  • Transport ONE Hydra 10 .308 and a 6.5 Creedmoor barrel in ONE rifle case instead of TWO.
  • Save hundreds of dollars by using one platform and adding on barrel or conversion kits for more caliber options.
  • Training on the same rifle increases muscle memory and therefore, accuracy. Change out calibers instead of rifles and MAINTAIN the same trigger pull and muscle memory.
  • Save money on purchasing multiple optics. Set your one optic to Zero and maintain your shooter’s log with the calculations. Because some calibers will affect range, by keeping your shooter’s log up to date, all you have to do is dial the optics to a preset mode for that particular caliber.

The new 6.5 Creedmoor rifle build retails for $1,999. For more info, visit hydraweaponry.com
