FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
RIGGINS, ID — GunsAmerica captured an exclusive first look at Seekins Precision’s all-new SIC rifle (Seekins Interchangeable Caliber) during the invitation-only N.A.S.T.I. competition at Hat Creek Training near Riggins, Idaho. The SIC represents a completely new rifle architecture from Seekins: a modular, precision-built platform engineered for extreme-range performance, field serviceability, and an undisclosed military contract currently in development.
Unlike a traditional chassis rifle, the SIC integrates the receiver and handguard into a solid, rigid structure that eliminates flex and bedding concerns. The result is uncompromising accuracy and strength across calibers. Using a captured quick-change barrel system, shooters can move from short-action cartridges up to .338 Lapua Magnum without tools. The rifle features a 60-degree bolt throw, Remington 700 trigger compatibility, and an ambidextrous thumb-rest safety that doubles as an ergonomic control point.
The SIC’s modularity extends to every major component. The magwell, trigger guard, and trigger assembly can be removed with push-pins for fast field maintenance. Seekins also showcased a double-stack 12-round magazine for .338 Lapua, a first of its kind in the precision bolt-gun category. The rifle’s carbon-fiber-wrapped barrels include wrench flats for quick barrel changes, and the integrated 20-MOA rail aligns with the handguard’s Arca/M-LOK interface for seamless use of night vision, thermals, and other optics.
Engineered for emerging high-pressure cartridges exceeding 80,000 PSI, the SIC was built to survive worst-case scenarios. Seekins reported extensive destructive testing on the platform, noting that even catastrophic overloads left the action intact and contained, a testament to the rifle’s overbuilt steel receiver and safety-first engineering.
At NASTI, competitors ran the SIC through rugged, real-world conditions, demonstrating its controllable recoil, stability, and precision under pressure. GunsAmerica currently has a production rifle in hand, with a full independent review and range evaluation coming soon on GunsAmerica.com.
