A few years ago, Nosler impressed with the release of the M21 Lightweight Hunting Rifle, a marvelously lightweight bolt gun built to carry into the wild. Now the company has doubled down on the form once again, taking the high-end hunting rifle to new heights. The Nosler M21 Carbon aims to achieve the most elite of categories, blending modern form and function at the highest levels.
Nosler M21 Carbon
This one combines the finest of components. It starts with a TriggerTech Diamond Gold-Edition trigger for a precision pull. This precision-engineered component features Zero Creep Technology for a clean break and control. The adjustable pull weight ranges from 4 to 32 ounces. Frictionless Release Technology helps ensure a smooth, consistent pull of the trigger.
The carbon-fiber stock comprises the major focal point of the rifle build. It weighs around 27 ounces, providing strength with incredibly light weight. The stock exhibits a vertical grip and a flat forend. So it can go up the mountain or benchrest with ease.
The Model 21 action comprises the heart of the rifle. Nosler blueprints the action using wire EDM techology. Inside, a spiral-fluted, one-piece Nitride-coated bolt, constructed from 4340 Chrome Moly steel rides smooth. The spiral cuts reduce weight and channels debris for reliable performance. An M16-style extractor and fire control group deliver tool-less takedown as well.
One in a Lifetime Build
Here’s the real kicker. Nosler plans to build only 100 of these rifles – ever. American-made, handcrafted; the M21 Carbon comes like no other.
