The SIG716 G2 rifle from SIG Sauer saw an upgrade in 2018. Now available in the popular 6.5 Creedmoor, the rifle is built with a number of enhancements that provide an all-around better precision rifle for consumers.

Some of the stand-out features on the SIG716 G2 include the addition of an all-new one-piece handguard complete with a continuous Picatinny top rail that provides shooters with 20 MOA of built-in elevation. The rifle is also equipped with a Magpul PRS user-adjustable stock.
