Basic Information
The weapon essentially takes the Ares Shrike system and upgrades it to a 6.8mm Remington system, with a few other detail oriented improvements. The weapon exploits an extended 16 inch polygonal rifling barrel, which increases the accuracy drastically from a 14.5 inch normally rifled barrel. It also uses two impact gel insert pads in the fore-grip (or grip), the handle, and stock.
