Rifleman Review: Taurus Expedition

Taurus has long been known for its extensive line of affordable handguns and revolvers, but last year, the company expanded into an entirely new realm: rifles. With its new Expedition bolt-action, Taurus now offers an affordable, versatile rifle that’s suitable for a range of tasks. Watch our “American Rifleman Television” Rifleman Review segment above to see the details of this modular, competition-style precision arm.

“ Taurus has entered the bolt-action rifle market in a big way with its new Expedition rifle,” American Rifleman Editor In Chief Brian Sheetz said. “Now, immediately, you notice about this gun that the stock has a distinctive shape, and it’s not a stock that Taurus sourced elsewhere. It’s built to their specifications.”

While not styled like a traditional rifle stock, the Taurus Expedition stock is purposefully contoured to offer some key advantages for competition shooters. On the fore-end, the recesses on the left and right sides provide a secure mounting point for a saddle clamp like those used atop shooting tripods. A recess on the underside of the butt provides room for a support hand, as well as a shooting bag, and there’s a raised cheekpiece to align a shooter’s eye with a mounted optic. On the underside of the fore-end, two M-Lok slots allow for accessory attachments, and there’s also a socket for mounting a Spartan Precision Javelin bipod.

 ”The pic rail that’s attached to the top of this receiver is like other aspects of the receiver in the Remington 700 pattern,” Sheetz said. “So that was the idea of what the Expedition is. We’re gonna do a rifle that borrows from successful accessory platforms.”

The Taurus Expedition has a three-lug, spiral-fluted bolt body that offers a 60-degree throw to clear any mounted optic. A two-position safety is located just to the right of the receiver tang, and the bolt can be cycled with the rifle on Safe.

Thanks to this receiver profile, the Taurus Expedition is compatible with all Remington 700-pattern optic bases, and all aftermarket Remington 700-pattern stocks are also compatible with the rifle’s barreled action. Rifles are available in either .308 Win. with an 18″ cold-hammer-forged barrel or 6.5 mm Creedmoor with a 20″ cold-hammer-forged barrel. barrels are threaded at the muzzle for the attachment of suppressors or muzzle devices.

 ”I think that, with the Expedition, Taurus has entered a new segment of the market with a product that has a unique combination of features that should appeal to a lot of people looking for an entry-level, PRS-style rifle, a bolt-action rifle that they can do a lot with,” Sheetz said. “They can hunt with it, they could compete with it. And it really brings a feature set together that represents Taurus well.”

The AICS-compatible magazine well incorporates a bilateral release lever located just forward of the enlarged trigger guard.
