It made quite a splash, being the first the company’s first bolt-action offering since the company released the SSG 3000 in 1992. Designed with the input of hunters, military snipers, and elite long-range snipers, the CROSS marked a fresh and innovative approach to hunting rifles. It’s a versatile package that seamlessly blends tactical and sporting elements. The original model was available in 6.5 Creedmoor, .308 Win., SIG .277 Fury, followed by the CROSS-PRS and CROSS STX, both available in .208 Win and 6.5 Creedmoor.

And now, those who enjoy the platform will be glad to know that Sig Sauer has added a powerful new member to the family, the CROSS Magnum.
