Ballistics and Field Performance

30-06 Springfield Capabilities

The 30-06 Springfield chambering remains one of the most versatile big-game rounds available. With the Mark III Safari’s 22″ barrel, shooters will see efficient velocities and reliable terminal performance on deer, elk, and similar game without sacrificing follow-up shot speed provided by the semi-auto action. The 4-round capacity keeps the platform compact and balanced for quick shouldering and controlled recoil management.

The BAR’s proven gas piston operation reduces felt recoil and helps maintain point-of-impact consistency shot-to-shot, critical when stalking or shooting from improvised positions in variable terrain. Accuracy, speed, and reliable cycling are the tripod of performance this rifle was engineered to support. Check current availability
