Coyote and varmint hunters alike will appreciate the DPMS “Prairie Panther Series,” a new line of rifles designed to handle the most rugged and inhospitable conditions you may encounter on the hunt! Chambered in .223 Remington, the rifles feature a fluted 20” target crowned, 416 stainless steel, match quality heavy barrel, and the reliability and accuracy expected of a DPMS rifle. And, for the first time ever, hunters have a choice beyond the customary basic black finish as a camouflage finish never before offered by DPMS highlights the new rifle series. Utilizing the popular water transfer process, the Prairie Panther Rifle Series showcases the King’s Desert Shadow® pattern and the Mossy Oak Brush® pattern on the upper and lower receivers, the buttstock, pistol grip and free float tube, providing hunters one more opportunity for a successful hunt.
