Desert Tactical Arms (DTA) makes magazine fed, precision bolt action rifles in bullpup format. Given the tremendous ballistic advantage that longer barrels offer, the bullpup format makes a lot of sense for precision rifles. Basically, Desert Tactical Arms gives precision shooters the same ballistics that are possible with the fence post-like precision rifles that they are used to but in a much more compact package.
They offer three chassis that are available in a variety of calibers – the SRS, SRS Covert, and the HTI. The SRS is their standard chassis that is available in calibers like .308, .260 Remington, 7mm Winchester Short Mag, and more. The SRS Covert is a shorter (16″ and 18″ barrels) version of the SRS that is extremely compact at just 29.5″ long or shorter. The HTI is designed to handle larger calibers like .50 BMG and .408 CheyTac.
Thanks for the great review Matt.
Bummed I couldn’t make the trip out, but it sounds like Mike and Seth had a great time with you guys…

Mike and Seth were great. Seth was patient in answering our questions and Mike was doing a great job running the range. The rifles were great too.
