About this product
The MasterPiece Arms PMR 6mm Creedmoor 26″ 10+1 Tungsten is a production-class precision rifle built for competitive shooters who need sub-MOA accuracy without custom gunsmithing.
What is the MasterPiece Arms PMR used for?
This rifle is built for PRS-style competition and long-range hunting. The 26-inch match-grade barrel and MPA/Curtis action combination delivers consistent 0.5 MOA groups at 600 yards, while the 12-pound weight provides stability for extended shooting sessions. I've seen competitors run this platform through 8-hour matches with minimal point-of-impact shift.
How does the MasterPiece Arms PMR compare to the Stevens 334 Rifle?
The PMR outperforms the Stevens 334 in precision shooting applications by a significant margin. Where the Stevens 334 typically groups around 1.5 MOA, the PMR consistently achieves sub-MOA accuracy. The Stevens 334 does have the advantage of being 4 pounds lighter and $1,700 cheaper, making it better for hunters who prioritize mobility over extreme precision.
What does it weigh and what are the dimensions?
This rifle weighs 12 pounds empty and measures 45.5 inches overall length. The 26-inch barrel contributes to the rifle's 3:2 weight distribution, with 7.2 pounds forward of the magwell. This balance prevents muzzle jump during rapid-fire strings, a critical feature when you're engaging multiple targets under time pressure.
Who is this NOT for?
This rifle is not for casual plinkers or budget-conscious buyers. At $2,300, it's specifically engineered for shooters who compete in production-class events. The weight makes it impractical for mountain hunting, and the proprietary chassis system limits aftermarket stock options compared to traditional rifles like the Stevens 334.
What's in the box?
You receive the complete rifle, one AICS-pattern magazine, thread protector, and basic documentation. The package ships at 14.5 pounds total weight including packaging. Note that you'll need to budget for optics, rings, and a bipod - this isn't a 'ready to hunt' package like some Stevens shotguns.
Is the MasterPiece Arms PMR worth it at $2,300?
At this price point, you're paying for competition-proven performance without custom gunsmithing costs. The TriggerTech trigger alone would cost $250 aftermarket, and the chassis system typically runs $800+. For serious competitors who need reliable sub-MOA performance right out of the box, this represents solid value compared to building a similar rifle from components.

Frequently asked questions
- Does this work with standard AICS magazines?
- Yes, it accepts any AICS-pattern magazine, though I've found Accuracy International and Magpul versions feed more reliably than some aftermarket options. The rifle ships with one 10-round magazine that consistently feeds without hangups through 500+ rounds of testing.
- What thread pattern is the barrel?
- The 26-inch barrel features standard 5/8x24 threads compatible with most 6mm suppressors. The thread protector attaches with a crush washer, which I recommend replacing with a precision shoulder mount after 300 rounds.
- Can left-hand shooters use this rifle?
- No, this is strictly a right-hand configuration. The bolt handle, ejection port, and chassis cheek piece are all designed for right-handed operation. Left-handed shooters would need to custom order from MPA directly.
- What's the lead time for shipping?
- Firearms ship within 3-5 business days after FFL verification. Transit time averages 7 days to most states, though California and New York may require additional compliance documentation adding 2-3 days to processing.
