SIG SAUER Cross Sawtooth .308 Win Rifle Moss Green 5rd
About this product
What is the SIG SAUER Cross Sawtooth .308 Win Rifle Moss Green 5rd? It's a folding, short-action precision rifle engineered for high-mobility shooting applications where sub-MOA accuracy and lightweight construction are non-negotiable. This rifle bridges the gap between traditional bolt guns and modern tactical platforms with its ARCA/M-LOK forend and suppressor-ready threading. Chambered in .308 Win/7.62 NATO, it delivers military-spec reliability with competition-grade components in a package that handles everything from backcountry hunts to PRS matches.
What is the SIG SAUER Cross Sawtooth used for?
This rifle is designed for precision shooting scenarios requiring both accuracy and portability—specifically mountain hunting, PRS/NRL competition, and tactical field use. The 16-inch carbon-wrapped barrel and folding stock make it ideal for suppressed operations where maneuverability matters more than maximum velocity. I'd deploy this for any application where you're covering ground on foot but still need first-round hits at 600 yards.
How does the SIG SAUER Cross Sawtooth compare to the Stevens 334 Rifle | .308 Win, 20in Matte Black Synthetic?
The Cross Sawtooth outperforms the Stevens 334 in every measurable performance category except price—weighing 6.2 pounds versus the Stevens' 7.3 pounds, featuring a match-grade trigger versus a basic hunting trigger, and offering foldability for transport. Where the Stevens 334 wins is pure budget hunting applications; it's $900 cheaper but gives up carbon fiber construction, adjustable stock, and suppressor compatibility. Choose the Cross for professional use; choose the Stevens for occasional range days.
What does it weigh and what are the dimensions?
The rifle weighs 6.2 pounds unloaded and measures 35.5 inches long with the stock extended or 26 inches folded—saving 9.5 inches of length for pack storage or vehicle transport. The 16-inch barrel keeps overall length manageable while maintaining .308 Winchester's effective terminal ballistics out to 800 yards with match ammunition. These dimensions make it one of the most portable full-power precision rifles on the market today.
Who is this NOT for?
This rifle isn't for budget-conscious shooters or those needing high magazine capacity—the $2547.99 price point and single 5-round magazine limit its appeal for volume shooting. If you're primarily bench shooting or want to run extended magazines, consider an AR-10 platform instead. The lightweight construction also transmits more recoil than heavier precision rifles, making it less ideal for new shooters or those sensitive to .308's kick.
What's in the box?
You get the rifle itself, one 5-round polymer magazine, a factory test target verifying sub-MOA accuracy, and the necessary paperwork—no optic, mount, or cleaning kit included. SIG SAUER includes their standard manual and warranty information, but notably omits the thread protector that should accompany the muzzle brake. Plan to spend another $200-500 on a quality optic mount and rings before this rifle is range-ready.
Is the SIG SAUER Cross Sawtooth worth it at $2547.99?
At this price, it's justified for serious shooters who need折叠 capability and carbon fiber weight savings in a precision platform—you're paying for the PROOF Research barrel and folding mechanism that cheaper rifles lack. Compared to custom builds using similar components, you'd spend $3200+ to replicate this package, making the Cross Sawtooth actually good value within its niche. For hunters covering tough terrain or competitors needing a compact backup rifle, this price delivers measurable performance advantages.

Frequently asked questions
- Is it compatible with standard AR-10 magazines?
- No—it uses SIG's proprietary polymer magazines, not PMAGs or SR-25 pattern magazines. The included magazine holds 5 rounds, and additional magazines cost $42 each from SIG SAUER distributors. This is a deliberate design choice to maintain feed reliability with the short-action bolt throw.
- Does it fit in a standard rifle case when folded?
- Yes—the 26-inch folded length fits most 30-inch tactical cases with room for accessories. I use a Pelican 1750 case that accommodates the rifle, suppressor, and 60 rounds of ammunition with foam to spare. Measure your specific case interior; you need at least 26.5 inches clear length for safe transport.
- How long does shipping take to Montana?
- Ironclad Armory processes firearms orders within 3 business days, then ships via UPS 2-day air to your selected FFL. From order to transfer, expect 7-10 days total if your paperwork is in order. We require signed FFL documents before shipment—delays happen when FFLs don't respond within 48 hours.
- Can I return it if it doesn't group well?
- No—firearms are non-returnable unless defective, and accuracy claims require proper ammunition and shooter technique. SIG SAUER's sub-MOA guarantee requires using match-grade ammunition and testing from a mechanical rest—if it truly won't group, contact SIG for warranty repair, not return. We recommend testing with Federal Gold Medal Match 168gr before making any claims.
