Aero Precision SOLUS LW Short Action Magnum

The Solus Lightweight (LW) action from Aero Precision is a purpose-built, lightweight Remington 700 short-action compatible receiver designed for precision hunting and long-range builds. Ounces of material were removed from the receiver and bolt to reduce weight while retaining a robust 416 stainless-steel construction and a refined internal geometry for smooth cycling. The action accepts detachable AICS/AIAW-style magazines and is sized to feed cartridges up to 3.00″ overall length. A versatile optic choice under $1000 that pairs well with this action is the Vortex Viper PST Gen II 3-15×44 for long-range precision use.
