Performance Center and Thompson/Center Arms has announced the launch of a new bolt-action, chassis-style rifle—the Performance Center T/C Long Range Rifle (LRR). Co-developed by Performance Center and Thompson/Center Arms for extreme long-range shooting, the Performance Center T/C Long Range Rifle is built on an aluminum chassis stock and is available in popular long-range shooting calibers: .243 Win., .308 and 6.5 Creedmoor. The new rifle will be on display at Thompson/Center and Performance Center Booths (Booth #8555) during the NRA Annual Meetings and Exhibits on May 4-6, 2018 in Dallas, Texas. 

Tony Miele, general manager of Performance Center, said, “With the growing popularity of long range, precision shooting, we wanted to ensure our customers had an option available from the Performance Center. We’ve teamed up with Thompson/Center to design the new Long Range Rifle, and are excited to combine Thompson/Center’s bolt-action expertise with innovation that has become the hallmark of the Performance Center brand.” 

The rifle includes a 20 MOA picatinny-style rail and 5R rifled, fluted barrel for enhanced accuracy. It is built for the precision shooter, featuring an adjustable cheek piece and buttplate for a custom fit and built-in Magpul M-LOK slots for quick, easy mounting of accessories. The rifle features a threaded barrel with muzzle brake, and a Performance Center trigger that’s adjustable from 2.5 to 3.5 lbs. for precise tuning. 

Available in both a Black and Flat Dark Earth (FDE) finish, the gun includes a one-year limited warranty and lifetime service plan, ships with one 10-round detachable magazine, a Caldwell Pic Rail XLA Fixed Bipod and soft case. MSRP for all calibers and configurations is $1,211.
