Smith and Wesson have recently expanded their lineup of rifles with the introduction of their new M&P 10 Volunteer X rifles that take the base M&P 10 sport model and add a few key features to set it apart from the standard M&P 10. The new M&P 10 Volunteer X rifles will be available in two caliber options and come standard with 16″ barrels, as well as upgraded furniture. The two caliber offerings will be .308 Winchester and 6.5 Creedmoor which means that both big game and whitetail hunters now have access to two new hunting rifle offerings that feature premium components and are perfectly suited to accept their preferred hunting optic.
