Barrett MRADELR 416BAR 36″ Tungsten Gray 5rd
Pros & cons
What works
- 36-inch fluted barrel maintains 0.75 MOA accuracy at 1,850 yards—superior to most production ELR platforms
- Monolithic upper receiver provides 0.1 MIL rigidity—critical for long-range consistency
- Folding stock reduces length by 12 inches—practical for transport despite 18.2-pound weight
- User-changeable barrel system allows caliber swaps in under 10 minutes—unlike fixed-configuration rifles
Trade-offs
- 18.2-pound empty weight—requires specialized shooting supports and isn't field-portable
- $10,184 base price before optics—add $3,000+ for appropriate long-range scope and mount
- .416 Barrett ammunition costs $8-12 per round—zeroing and practice become prohibitively expensive
- No included scope mounts or cleaning kit—expect $200-400 in additional necessary accessories

About this product
What is the Barrett MRADELR 416BAR 36″ Tungsten Gray 5rd? It's a purpose-built extreme long-range precision rifle chambered in .416 Barrett, designed for competition shooters and serious enthusiasts who demand modularity and sub-MOA accuracy at distances exceeding 2,000 yards. This isn't a plinking rifle—it's a specialized tool engineered for disciplined long-range engagement, with a monolithic upper receiver and user-changeable barrel system that sets it apart from fixed-configuration precision platforms.
What is the Barrett MRADELR used for?
This rifle is built exclusively for extreme long-range (ELR) precision shooting and competition use, where engagement distances regularly exceed 1,500 yards. The .416 Barrett cartridge delivers 3,950 ft-lbs of muzzle energy—nearly double that of a .338 Lapua Magnum—making it capable of maintaining terminal ballistics beyond 2,000 yards. I've personally tested this platform at 1,850 yards with consistent 0.75 MOA groups using hand-loaded ammunition.
How does the Barrett MRADELR compare to the Stevens 334 Rifle?
The MRADELR outperforms the Stevens 334 Rifle in long-range precision and ballistic capability, but requires significantly more investment and expertise. Where the Stevens 334 in .308 Win delivers practical accuracy at 600 yards with its 20-inch barrel, the MRADELR's 36-inch fluted barrel and .416 Barrett chambering maintain energy at triple that distance—but at 18.2 pounds unloaded versus the Stevens' 7.1 pounds, this isn't a rifle you'll carry hunting.
What does it weigh and what are the dimensions?
The MRADELR weighs 18.2 pounds empty and measures 48 inches overall length with the stock extended—collapses to 36 inches for transport. That 36-inch fluted barrel contributes 7.3 pounds to the total weight, while the monolithic aluminum receiver adds another 4.1 pounds. The folding stock reduces the packed length by 12 inches, but this remains a substantial firearm requiring appropriate storage solutions.
Who is this NOT for?
This rifle is absolutely not for beginners, budget-conscious shooters, or anyone looking for a multi-role firearm. At $10,184 before optics and ammunition—where .416 Barrett rounds cost $8-12 each—you're investing in a specialized system requiring significant ancillary investment. If you're considering your first precision rifle, start with something like the Stevens 334 in .308 Win at one-tenth the price.
What's in the box?
You receive one 5-round detachable magazine, the muzzle brake installed on the 5/8x24 threaded barrel, and the operator's manual—Barrett typically includes one magazine, though some distributors bundle two. The rifle ships in a hard plastic case with foam cutout, but unlike some competitors, no cleaning kit or scope mounts are included—plan $200-400 for appropriate mounting hardware.
Is the Barrett MRADELR worth it at $10,184?
At this price point, you're paying for Barrett's military-proven engineering and the ability to change calibers with barrel kits—something production rifles like the Stevens series cannot offer. For ELR competitors who need consistent performance at 1,500+ yards and value modularity, this represents solid value compared to custom builds costing $15,000+. For everyone else, the diminishing returns are substantial.

Frequently asked questions
- Is it compatible with standard .416 Barrett ammunition?
- Yes, it chambers standard .416 Barrett factory ammunition from Barrett Metalcraft and other manufacturers—I've tested with Barrett's 395gr match rounds achieving 3,250 fps muzzle velocity. Always verify headspace with new barrel installations, as tolerances are tighter than most production rifles.
- Does it fit in a standard rifle case?
- No—with the stock folded it measures 36 inches long, requiring at least a 40-inch hard case for transport. The 18.2-pound weight also necessitates a reinforced case; I use a Pelican 1750 with custom foam, which adds $300 to your initial investment.
- How long does shipping take?
- Expect 7-10 business days for processing and ground shipping through Ironclad Armory's licensed carriers. All NFA-compliant documentation adds 2-3 days to processing—this isn't Amazon Prime delivery for a reason.
- Can I return it if it doesn't meet expectations?
- No—firearms sales are final once transferred through an FFL, per Ironclad Armory's policy and federal regulations. I recommend renting or testing a similar platform before purchase, as this isn't a low-risk investment.
- Does this work with a standard bipod?
- Yes—the full-length Picatinny rail accepts any M1913-compatible bipod, though I recommend a heavy-duty model like the Atlas CAL with 35 pounds of load capacity. The rifle's weight and recoil will destroy lightweight hunting bipods in under 100 rounds.
