    the super varmint comes with an integral piccatiny rail, if you want a fox /target rifle I would buy the supervarmint model , in an eight inch twist.

    I think only the tactical version comes threaded. I had a super varmint in 6.5 and loved it did one of my best groups with it at 300yds using 139gr lapua 3 shots 10.25mm regret gettin rid off it

    Can only comment on the lite, it comes factory threaded for moderator. Fine rifle for the foxes not sure about target work as the only bit I have done is zeroing in the rifle but the results were not bad. Click on my picture below for more detials.
