Why is the MANAEL CB12 the best precision rifle chassis in Australia?

As Precision Rifle experts, we've dealt with every leading brand. The CB12 chassis competes with top-tier models like Masterpiece Arms Matrix Pro, XLR Envy Pro, KRG C4, and MDT Elite II. But the MANAEL CB12 is our favourite for Precision Rifle.  Here's why.

MANAEL have taken elite performance a step further: MANAEL examined the science behind what made precision chassis a winner. Using the engineering behind the PRS winning Sedajo Chassis, MANAEL worked with top competition shooters to refine features and deliver a chassis with unmatched stability, ruggedness and customisation. 

Extra Strength & Length

Its one of the longest and strongest chassis we have seen. With a 516mm foreend and 20 inches of arca swiss rail there's no shortage of room to mount your gear.

But more importantly - the big foreend distributes weight forward. This gives you a perfect balance point for barricade work or skills stage shooting. And being so wide you get added stability.

The 20" integrated Arca Swiss Rail allows maximum forwards bipod placement for extra stability in long range work.

MANAEL have included foreend reinforcement bridges to give superior rigidity to the foreend. Plus enough room for 1.3" straight barrels.

Weight Tuning 

The CB12 is also one of the heaviest we've held. Weighing in at 3.5kg from the box, its definitely got enough material to absorb recoil and keep you lined up on the target in comeptition.

You can easily add up to 1.6kg with Performance Internal Tuning Weights. But that's not enough, you can add on so so many MANAEL Stackable External Weights. This makes it perfect for absorbing recoil energy and creating perfect balance for barricade stability.

Custom options

The CB12 Rear Stock is completely adjustable. Its length of pull ranges from 13.5" to 15.5" and you can adjust cheek height and slew, recoil pad position using detent thumb wheels. 
MANAEL have also included an adjustable bag rider so you can change height and bag rider position while on the fly.

We love that MANAEL gives you options with the CB12 Chassis. The rear stock is interchageable with all MANAEL Chassis models produced from 2024. Its also interchangeable with Southern Cross Small Arms Rear stocks. Or you can run any leading brand AR Buffer Tube Rear Stock using a MANAEL adaptor.

Find your perfect position

With integrated thumb shelf that's compatible with all leading brands of grip you can easily find a comfortable setup. 
You can also add extra grip points using the MANAEL Thumb Chocks
