The Wilderness Laminate Thumbhole Stock

The most striking feature of this “Wilderness” edition is its premium laminate stock. Unlike traditional wood, laminate is constructed from high-pressure bonded layers, making it virtually impervious to the elements.

• Exceptional Stability: The laminate construction ensures that the stock will never warp or shift due to temperature or humidity, maintaining your “zero” in any environment.
• Ergonomic Thumbhole Design: The stock features a vertical pistol grip and an adjustable butt pad and cheekpiece. This allows the shooter to achieve a bespoke fit, ensuring perfect eye-to-scope alignment for every shot.
• Tactical Aesthetics: The Wilderness finish provides a unique, muted color palette that blends effectively into woodland environments while offering a sophisticated, modern look.
• 3-way adjustable butt pad and a height-adjustable cheekpiece – perfect cheek weld for any shooter, regardless of scope height

Regulated Performance and CHF Barrel Technology

At the heart of the BSA R12 CLX Pro is a sophisticated internal regulator. This system ensures that every single shot is delivered at the exact same pressure, eliminating the “power curve” found in unregulated rifles.

• Match-Grade Consistency: Whether you are on your first shot or your 120th, the regulator ensures a tight FPS spread, which is the foundation of long-range accuracy.
• Cold Hammer Forged (CHF) Barrel: BSA remains the only volume manufacturer to cold hammer-forge their own barrels. This process results in a mirror-smooth bore and uniform rifling, allowing the BSA R12 CLX Pro to produce “one-hole” groups at 50 yards and beyond.
• CCS (Customer Configurable Shroud): The rifle is equipped with the CCS system, allowing you to easily swap between a fully shrouded barrel or a shorter setup with an added silencer to suit your specific hunting or range needs.

Side-Lever Action and 12-Shot Magazine

The R12 generation introduces the highly anticipated side-lever cocking system, a major upgrade over traditional bolt-actions.

• Effortless Cycling: The side-lever is bi-directional and incredibly smooth, allowing the shooter to cycle the 12-shot magazine without ever having to lift their head from the cheekpiece.
• Independent Magazine Indexing: The new 12-shot magazine is designed to be jam-proof, featuring a clear window to show how many shots are remaining.
• Adjustable Match Trigger: The trigger unit is fully adjustable for weight, length of pull, and blade position, providing a crisp, “glass-like” break that is essential for precision shooting.

Flagship Precision and Field Ready Design

The BSA R12 CLX Pro Wilderness Edition represents the zenith of BSA’s current PCP engineering, combining the side-lever action from the Ultra CLX with the popular, classic Thumbhole stock design previously seen on the R10.

This flagship model is built upon the reliable Mono-block platform, which reduces component count for enhanced efficiency and reliability, making it an extremely consistent and robust performer tested with over 50,000 automated shots.

Superior Air Management and Shot Count

What sets the R12 CLX Pro apart is its exceptional air management system. It features a newly designed, high-performance regulator that ensures shot-to-shot consistency near the legal limit. This regulation is combined with a massive 480cc  carbon fibre reservoir, resulting in an industry-leading shot count, reportedly up to 400 shots in the .177 caliber from a 230 BAR fill. This allows for extended time on the range or in the field without the constant need to refill. The rifle is supplied with two 12-shot magazines that include a shot countdown window, providing excellent operational awareness.
