With its spiral-fluted, stainless-steel barrel, this hunting rifle reduces weight, improves heat dissipation and matches the accuracy and performance of rifles with carbon-wrapped barrels.

September 21, 2021 - Boise, Idaho… AllTerra Arms, manufacturer of precision bolt-action rifles with exclusive patented technology, recently announced a new rifle model: The nimble Mountain Shadow Steel.

This match-grade rifle achieves benchrest accuracy with patented Bolt-to-Bore Alignment™ and a distinct, spiral-fluted barrel design. AllTerra Arms' Chief Marketing Officer Mike Schwiebert explains the benefits, saying, "In addition to shaving more weight than straight-line flutes, the spiral fluting maximizes heat dissipation while enhancing barrel harmonics on every shot. In fact, the Mountain Shadow Steel matches the accuracy and performance of higher-priced carbon-wrapped barrels."

The Mountain Shadow Steel is so accurate that it’s backed by AllTerra Arms’ guarantee that promises sub-1/2” 3-shot groups with premium factory ammo; sub-1/4” 3-shot groups with custom AllTerra Arms ammunition; and no significant change in accuracy when shooting different bullet weights.

Like all AllTerra Arms rifles, the Mountain Shadow Steel features a patented Dual-Lock Barrel Seat™ and .0005” machining tolerances to achieve exact Bolt-to-Bore Alignment™. The patented receiver design also delivers No-Fail Cycling™ when working the action. The rifle will never jam or fail, guaranteed.

Design, research and testing of the Mountain Shadow Steel spanned nearly five years, with valuable input from hard-core sheep hunters and guides who know what they need from a lightweight, long-range rifle.

During that time, AllTerra Arms also developed custom loads specifically for the Mountain Shadow Steel that produce velocities from a 22" barrel which exceed the performance of popular loads from 26" barrels. All barrels are 5/8”-24 threaded for suppressors and include a stainless-steel directional muzzle brake

The base weight of the Mountain Shadow Steel is impressive at as little as 6 ¼ pounds. It is available 6mm Creedmoor, 6.5 Creedmoor and 6.5 PRC, 6.5 SS, 6.5 SST, 28 Nosler, 7 Rem Mag, 7MM SAUM, 7 SS, 300 SS, 300 PRC and 338 SS. Each rifle is built-to-order on AllTerra Arms innovative Carbon Hunter stock in a wide variety of finish options. The stock design promotes excellent shooting form while dramatically managing recoil. MSRP for the Mountain Shadow Steel starts at $5,495.
