Here’s what our experts had to say about the SIG Sauer 716i TREAD in their testing for the 2020 issue of Ballistic’s Best:

“The SIG Sauer TREAD lived up to its name as a good value, and for $1,399 you get a great AR-10 with a nice trigger, an ambidextrous safety, and upgraded grip and stock. Reliable and accurate, it was for the most part a dead heat. You simply cannot go wrong with any of these rifles.”
