About this product
The Glenfield Model A 6.5 Creedmoor 20in Threaded 4rd Moss Green is a full-size bolt-action rifle built for hunters and precision shooters who want a reliable, no-nonsense rig without the premium price tag. It comes with a 20-inch cold hammer-forged, threaded barrel finished in matte black, paired with a Moss Green Splatter fixed synthetic stock. The factory-installed one-piece Picatinny scope base saves you time and money on mounting, and the adjustable trigger lets you dial in pull weight between 3 and 5 pounds. This rifle ships with a single flush-fit 4-round magazine, a tang safety, and steel sling swivel studs. Per Glenfield specs, the one-piece, three-lug bolt features a 70-degree throw for fast cycling.

Key Features
- Cold Hammer-Forged Barrel β Why it matters: This process creates a denser, more uniform bore that delivers consistent accuracy shot after shot, even during longer strings of fire.

- Adjustable Trigger (3β5 lbs) β Why it matters: You can fine-tune the trigger pull to match your shooting style, whether you're after tight groups at the bench or a clean break in the field.
- One-Piece Picatinny Scope Base β Why it matters: No need to buy aftermarket bases β just mount your rings and scope directly to the factory-installed rail for a rock-solid setup.
- Three-Lug Bolt with 70Β° Throw β Why it matters: The short lift gives you faster follow-up shots and clears scope clearance issues, especially with larger objective lenses.
