MDT HNT26 Ultralight Hunting Chassis – Remington 700 Long Action CIP 3.850, Folding ARCA, Cobalt Green
The MDT HNT26 Hunting Chassis in Cobalt Green combines lightweight magnesium construction, carbon fiber components, and precision rifle ergonomics in a purpose-built backcountry hunting platform.
This 106131-CKG configuration is designed for right-handed Remington 700 Long Action rifles with the CIP 3.850-inch magazine configuration. It features a folding carbon fiber buttstock, integrated ARCA forend, adjustable cheek riser, and MDT's distinctive Cobalt Green factory finish.
For hunters building a lightweight long-action rifle, the HNT26 provides the rigidity and versatility of a modern chassis without the excessive weight of traditional aluminum competition systems.
Lightweight Magnesium & Carbon Fiber Construction
MDT developed the HNT26 specifically for hunters who demand a strong, lightweight rifle platform for challenging terrain and extended time in the field.
The chassis combines an AZ61A magnesium alloy structural core with a carbon fiber forend, carbon fiber pistol grip, and foam-filled carbon fiber buttstock.
The HNT26 family starts at approximately 26 ounces in its lightest configuration, with folding ARCA versions weighing approximately 31 ounces, depending on the specific action inlet and configuration.
The carbon fiber contact surfaces also reduce the cold-to-the-touch feeling associated with exposed metal components, making the chassis comfortable to handle during late-season hunting.
Remington 700 Long Action CIP 3.850 Compatibility
The MDT HNT26 106131-CKG is designed for right-handed Remington 700 Long Action rifles and compatible long-action Remington 700-pattern receivers.
This specific model features the CIP 3.850-inch magazine well configuration, intended for compatible long-action AICS-pattern detachable magazines.
The extended CIP magazine format is particularly relevant to certain long-action magnum cartridges and precision hunting applications where additional magazine length is required.
Important: The 3.850-inch CIP designation refers to the magazine format, not the maximum cartridge overall length. Magazine and receiver compatibility depend on the rifle's chambering, action dimensions, and specific magazine design.
This is not the Remington 700 Short Action version or the standard-length long-action magazine configuration. Verify the correct action inlet and magazine requirements before purchasing.
Folding Carbon Fiber Buttstock
The HNT26 features a folding, foam-filled carbon fiber buttstock designed for hunters who appreciate a compact rifle configuration during transportation and storage.
The folding mechanism reduces the chassis's overall length while preserving the adjustable ergonomics expected from a premium precision rifle stock.
- Folding Design: Compact configuration for transportation and storage.
- Carbon Fiber Construction: Lightweight foam-filled buttstock.
- Adjustable Cheek Riser: Helps establish consistent eye alignment behind the optic.
- Adjustable Length of Pull: Approximately 12.5" to 13.5" with the supplied spacer system.
- Low-Profile Exterior: Smooth contours designed to minimize snagging on clothing and equipment.
Integrated ARCA Carbon Fiber Forend
This configuration includes MDT's carbon fiber forend with an integrated ARCA mounting surface.
The integrated ARCA interface supports compatible tripod heads, bipod clamps, and shooting accessories without requiring a separate full-length accessory rail.
The enclosed forend also incorporates M-LOK accessory mounting provisions, providing additional flexibility for compatible shooting equipment.
With clearance for barrels up to 1.25 inches in diameter, the HNT26 accommodates a wide selection of hunting and precision rifle barrel profiles.
Magnesium Chassis with Integrated V-Block Bedding
At the foundation of the HNT26 is MDT's precision-engineered magnesium alloy chassis with integrated V-block bedding.
The rigid bedding interface supports consistent action positioning without requiring traditional glass bedding.
Combining magnesium and carbon fiber allows MDT to provide structural rigidity while maintaining a low overall chassis weight.
The HNT26 is especially appealing for lightweight Remington 700 hunting rifles using premium barrels, modern optics, and long-action cartridges.
Cobalt Green Factory Finish
The Cobalt Green finish provides a distinctive alternative to the traditional Black Carbon Fiber configuration.
The green chassis accents complement the exposed carbon fiber components, producing a modern hunting-oriented appearance without requiring an aftermarket finish.
This is a genuine MDT factory color configuration, retaining the same materials and engineering as other HNT26 models.
