The tactical shooter looking for a precision, no-nonsense bolt gun needs a rifle that balances rigidity, repeatability, and a lean mission profile. Designed to perform on both the range and in service, this rifle emphasizes accuracy and simplified logistics without sacrificing the MRAD platform’s proven strengths.

BARRETT MRAD SMR

Platform overview

The BARRETT MRAD SMR is a bolt action rifle built around a monolithic upper receiver machined from 7000-series aluminum, delivering a rigid foundation for barrels and optics. The full-length M1913 Picatinny top rail includes a built-in taper optimized for long-range precision scope mounting and repeatable zero. Unlike the convertible MRAD, the SMR is set up as a single-caliber rifle with a fixed (non-folding) stock, producing a slimmer, mission-focused package that’s 2.5 lbs lighter than the original MRAD. Price on the shop is $4292.99 — Shop this product.

Key features explained

Monolithic upper and rail

The one-piece 7000-series aluminum upper improves rigidity between barrel and optic, reducing point-of-impact shift from torque and recoil. The full-length Picatinny rail with taper is tailored for long-range glass, ensuring consistent eye relief and stable optic geometry.

Simplified mission package

By removing the multi-caliber interchangeable barrel system and folding stock, the BARRETT MRAD SMR achieves about 90% parts commonality with the MRAD while shedding weight and complexity. That fixed-stock design enhances cheek weld consistency and sling ergonomics for extended engagements.

Accuracy and handling

Barrett certifies the SMR to deliver approximately .75 MOA accuracy in its factory configuration — a capability that makes the rifle well-suited to precision shooters and designated marksman roles where follow-up shots and consistency matter.

Application and purchase

For law enforcement, military, or serious precision shooters who want a purpose-built bolt action without conversion bells and whistles, the BARRETT MRAD SMR offers a compact, lighter package that retains the MRAD’s core strengths.
