Precision shooters and tactical operators often look for a rifle that combines long-range cartridge performance with AR-style handling and reduced weight. A platform that feels familiar in the hands of an AR-15 user but delivers Creedmoor ballistics can be a force multiplier in the field or on the range.

PATRIOT ORDNANCE FACTORY REVOLUTION GEN 4

Design and parts commonality

This PATRIOT ORDNANCE FACTORY REVOLUTION GEN 4 is engineered to handle like a 5.56 AR while delivering 6.5 Creedmoor performance. POF achieves that by using numerous 5.56 parts — including the charging handle, bolt carrier, cam pin, buffer, heat sink barrel nut, handguard, and a 5-position gas piston operating system — allowing the barrel extension, bolt assembly, upper and lower receiver to match AR-15 dimensions. The result is a shorter overall receiver size and a significant reduction in weight compared with conventional .308 platforms.

Gen 4 build and ergonomics

The 6.5 Creedmoor model is built on a Gen 4 lower with a black anodized metal finish, paired to a 14.5″ M‑Lok MRR free-float handguard for modular accessory placement and improved barrel cooling. A crisp 4.5 lb. drop-in trigger provides predictable break and follow-through for precision work.

Why 6.5 Creedmoor on this platform?

6.5 Creedmoor is prized for flat trajectory, high ballistic coefficient bullets, and manageable recoil — well suited for target shooting, medium-game hunting, and tactical precision roles. On this platform, the cartridge benefits from AR-style ergonomics and weight savings, making accurate follow-up shots and extended range work less fatiguing.

Operational advantages

The five-position gas piston allows tuning for different ammo and suppressor use, improving reliability and reducing carrier velocity. Using common 5.56 components simplifies logistics for units or shooters already standardized on AR-15 parts while maintaining the bolt assembly and barrel extension required for the Creedmoor round.
