Technical Specs

The Gunwerks Helios Rifle System is the lightest edition of the renowned LR shooting setups. The package trims every ounce of extra wight but makes no sacrifice in the accuarcy department.

Like all Gunwerks LR rifles, these rifles are configured as complete shooting systems to give you the “Out of the Box” experience. With scopes mounted and calibrated with a custom ballistic turret, and the barrels broke in and accuracy tested, you can be shooting groups on a paper plate at 1000 yards or more out of the box. We recommend watching the training video “The first ten shots out of your rifle” to properly fine tune the zero of your shooting system.

The Helios comes coupled with the proprietary G7 2.5-10X32 riflescope (built by Nightforce Optics) to provide the ultimate in repeatable first-shot accuracy. The G7 scope is designed, manufactured and tested to maintain point of impact under all conditions—even side impacts.

The LR action series is precisely machined on CNC equipment from heat treated, ordinance grade barrel steel. Bolts are machined from a single billet of stainless steel, then coated with an extremely hard, high performance coating called Armaloy to prevent galling. Even the scope rings are pinned to eliminate any possibility of point of impact shift. Barrels are heat stress relieved three times in the manufacturing process. They feature a 5C or canted land configuration. The stainless steel is hand lapped to a bore variation tolerance of 0.0001 of an inch. Chamber work and barrel threading is completed on a very expensive, very precise Haas TL2 CNC lathe. Fit and finish is unmatched by “gunsmith” workbench lathes.

The Gunwerks LR stock has molded color and texture built into the stock—it cannot wear off and will look as-new after a lifetime of service. The NIC Industries, Cerakote finish is the industry standard for durability and good looks, all metal parts use this coating to prevent corrosion, simplify cleaning, and minimize lubrication requirements.

The Gunwerks Helios comes completely set up, barrel break-in is completed at the factory as is accuracy testing, scope mounting, ballistic profiling and calibration of a custom ballistic turret. The system is designed to provide first shot accuracy right out of the box. Select the proper caliber for your next hunt, and experience unmatched performance to 750 yards and beyond in the most shootable hunting package available.
