so much for abbreviations.
what does MTR mean???

Seems there is a MTR rifle company, dozens of MTR rifle models and lots of ads sayin it "is an MTR".

Seems it could mean:

MTR=  Modular Target Rifle
MTR=  Multi Task rimfire
MTR=  Modular Tactical Rifle
MTR=  Montana target Rifle 
MTR=  Mass Transit Railway
MTR=  Marginal Tax Rate

or it could just be the standard abbeviation for a Motor!!!


But it must sell rifles cause it is a hot term  almost over taking "tactical" stuff.

MTR stands for Match Target Rifle, yet it is probably a good thing that the company does not use the whole name. As, although it is a rifle whose accuracy matches that of a target rifle for sport shooting, it most definitely isn't a rifle just for shooting ranges.
