FIERCE FIREARMS CF RIVAL XP 300PRC BZ/SON 22″#
$2,686.88
The FIERCE FIREARMS CF RIVAL XP 300PRC BZ/SON 22″# delivers sub-MOA accuracy from a 7.2-lb carbon-fiber platform, with a TriggerTech trigger and 60-degree bolt throw for precision shooters who demand portability without compromising long-range performance.
The FIERCE FIREARMS CF RIVAL XP 300PRC BZ/SON 22″# is a production-level precision rifle that delivers sub-MOA consistency straight from the box, built around a carbon-fiber wrapped barrel and a 60-degree bolt throw for fast cycling in PRS or long-range hunting scenarios. This model chambers the 300 PRC, a cartridge designed for 2,000-yard engagement with heavy-for-caliber projectiles, and the 22-inch barrel balances portability with retained velocity for extended range work. Per manufacturer specs, the action is trued and lapped from the factory, ensuring a consistent bolt-to-barrel lockup that minimizes shot-to-shot deviation.

Key Features
- Carbon-Fiber Wrapped Barrel — WHY IT MATTERS: Reduces barrel weight by 30% over a comparable steel contour while maintaining stiffness for consistent harmonics, translating to 0.5 MOA or better groups with factory match ammunition.
- 60-Degree Bolt Throw — WHY IT MATTERS: Allows faster cycling without breaking cheek weld, critical for follow-up shots in PRS stages or on moving game at distance.
- TriggerTech Adjustable Trigger — WHY IT MATTERS: Factory-set at 2.5 lbs with zero creep and a crisp break, eliminating the need for an aftermarket trigger upgrade to achieve sub-MOA performance.
- Burnt Bronze Cerakote Finish — WHY IT MATTERS: Provides corrosion resistance and reduces glare in field conditions, while the bronze tone blends with dry brush and rocky terrain.
- Detachable Box Magazine (AICS Pattern) — WHY IT MATTERS: Uses standard AICS 3.850″-length magazines, giving you access to affordable, widely available spares and allowing COAL up to 3.700″ for handloaded 225-grain ELD-M bullets.
Who It’s For
This rifle targets the precision shooter who wants a production gun that doesn’t require a gunsmith for basic accuracy. The 22-inch barrel and 7.2-lb weight make it a candidate for PRS Light division or backcountry hunting where weight matters. If you’re shooting past 1,200 yards with 300 PRC and want a rifle that holds zero across temperature swings, this fits. It’s also a direct upgrade from entry-level chassis rifles like the Ruger Precision Rifle in 300 PRC, offering a carbon barrel without the custom wait time.
Pros & Cons
Pros: Sub-MOA guarantee verified with multiple factory loads; carbon barrel reduces carry weight without sacrificing velocity; TriggerTech trigger is match-grade out of the box; 60-degree bolt throw speeds up cycling in timed stages.
Cons: The 22-inch barrel loses about 50-75 fps compared to a 26-inch tube in 300 PRC, which can affect trajectory at extreme ranges beyond 1,800 yards. This is an honest drawback for pure ELR shooters who prioritize velocity over portability.

The Fierce undercuts Zev on price and weight while offering a carbon barrel that the Lone Wolf lacks. For the PRS shooter who needs a 7-lb rifle that shoots, the Fierce is the clear value play.
FAQ
What twist rate does the barrel use?
The 22-inch carbon barrel uses a 1:8 twist rate, optimized for heavy 300 PRC bullets like the 225-grain ELD-M and 230-grain Berger Hybrid. This stabilizes projectiles up to 250 grains without over-spinning lighter options.
Does this rifle accept aftermarket triggers?
Yes, the action is compatible with TriggerTech and Jewell triggers. The factory TriggerTech unit is already adjustable from 1.5 to 3.5 lbs, so most shooters won’t need a swap unless they want a sub-1-pound pull for benchrest work.
What is the maximum overall cartridge length (COAL) for the magazine?
The AICS-pattern magazine accepts COAL up to 3.700 inches. This allows seating 225-grain ELD-M bullets at 3.650″ for optimal jump, but you cannot seat 230-grain Bergers at 3.800″ without single-feeding.
Is the barrel threaded for a suppressor?
Yes, the muzzle is threaded 5/8×24 TPI, standard for .30-caliber suppressors. A thread protector is included. Per Fierce Firearms, the barrel is designed to maintain sub-MOA accuracy with a suppressor attached, provided the can weighs under 20 oz.
How does the 22-inch barrel affect velocity compared to a 26-inch barrel?
Expect a loss of 50-75 fps with factory 300 PRC loads. For example, a 225-grain ELD-M at 2,850 fps from a 26″ barrel will run approximately 2,775-2,800 fps from the 22″ tube. This reduces point-blank range slightly but still gives 1,500-yard capability with a 100-yard zero.
