Its compact size allows for easy handling and transport, ideal for shooters needing mobility and quick target acquisition.

Barrel and Accuracy

Stock Options

The S510 Carbine comes with various stock finishes, including walnut, laminate, and synthetic options, all designed for comfort and stability. The adjustable cheekpiece and butt pad help customize the fit for individual shooters.

Performance and Shot Count

Depending on the caliber and regulator setup, the S510 Carbine delivers approximately 80-120 shots per fill at around 11.4 ft-lbs of energy, with consistent velocities suitable for precise shooting over extended sessions.
