The Barrett M99 is a purpose-built long-range platform that combines simple single-shot mechanics with match-grade components to deliver repeatable accuracy at extreme distances.

BARRETT M99

Key features and what they mean on the range

The BARRETT M99 is a single shot bolt action chambered for 50 BMG, built around an optic-ready FDE Cerakoted aluminum receiver for corrosion resistance and low-reflective finish. Its match quality trigger reduces take-up and overtravel, giving experienced shooters a predictable break for long-range groups. The 32 heavy barrel with a 115″ twist maximizes stabilization for heavy 50 BMG projectiles, while the three-port fanned high-efficiency muzzle brake minimizes felt recoil and muzzle rise for follow-up precision.

Design, ergonomics, and field use

The fixed metal stockreceiver finished in flat dark earth provides a rigid bedding platform that enhances consistency shot-to-shot; contrasting black components focus on durability where wear is most likely. At 23 pounds and a 47″ overall length, the M99 is a stable firing platform that benefits from prone or supported positions. It ships with a hard case and a quick-detach adjustable bipod—both practical items that reduce prep time at the range or in the field.

Caliber benefits and applications

Chambered in 50 BMG, the M99 is effective for long-range precision, counter-materiel tasks, and scenarios where penetration and retained energy are required. The heavy 32 barrel and 115″ twist accommodate long, high-BC bullets used for extended-range engagements. Expect pronounced recoil and the need for robust optics and mounting solutions; the optic-ready receiver streamlines installation of long-range scopes and mounts.
