$2,798.88
The Fierce Firearms Reaper H-Tac 7MM Backcountry 24-inch Carbon Bolt-Action delivers sub-MOA accuracy in a sub-7-pound package for the long-range hunter. Built with a 700-pattern receiver and C3 carbon barrel, it’s ready for optics, suppressors, and the backcountry.
The Fierce Firearms Reaper H-Tac 7MM Backcountry 24-inch Carbon Bolt-Action is a production-grade precision hunting rifle that marries a 700-pattern receiver with a 24-inch C3 carbon barrel and a chassis-style carbon fiber/aluminum grip. Designed for the long-range backcountry hunter who demands sub-MOA consistency from a sub-7-pound platform, this rifle is drilled and tapped for optics, threaded 5/8×24 for suppressors, and ships with a spiral-fluted bolt and an adjustable trigger. Per manufacturer specs, the Reaper H-Tac delivers a repeatable, cold-bore-first-shot accuracy that competes with custom builds at half the lead time.

Key Features
- C3 Carbon Barrel – This 24-inch, carbon-wrapped barrel sheds weight without sacrificing barrel stiffness. That means faster lock times, less muzzle flip, and more consistent harmonics shot-to-shot.
- 700-Pattern Receiver – You get full compatibility with the entire aftermarket ecosystem: triggers from TriggerTech or Timney, scope bases from Seekins, and stocks from McMillan or Manners. No proprietary nonsense.
- Adjustable Trigger – Factory-set at 2.5 lbs, but you can dial it down to 1.5 lbs. For a hunting rifle that also shoots PRS-style stages, that’s the sweet spot between safety and precision.
- M-LOK Forend – Mount a bipod, a barricade stop, or a Kestrel directly on the carbon-fiber chassis. No drilling, no adhesive—just torque to spec and go.
Who It’s For
This rifle is for the hunter who shoots—not the shooter who hunts. If you’re carrying a rifle 8 miles into elk country and still expect a 0.75 MOA group at 600 yards with a 7MM Backcountry load, the Reaper H-Tac is your tool. It’s also for the precision rifleman who wants a lightweight alternative to a 12-pound PRS rig for mountain positional matches.
Pros & Cons
- Pro: Sub-7-pound weight with a 24-inch barrel—rare in a production rifle. That’s a 40% weight reduction over a comparable steel-barreled 700-pattern gun.
- Con: The carbon barrel heats up faster than a steel barrel under sustained fire (think 10+ rounds in 2 minutes). This isn’t a problem for hunting or match stages, but it’s worth noting if you plan to run it as a trainer.

FAQ
What is the barrel twist rate for the 7MM Backcountry?
Per Fierce Firearms specs, the 24-inch C3 carbon barrel in 7MM Backcountry uses a 1:8.5 twist rate. That’s optimized for the 170–195 grain high-BC bullets this cartridge was designed for.
Does the Reaper H-Tac come with a scope base?
No. The receiver is drilled and tapped for 8-40 screws, which means you need a 700-pattern, 20-MOA rail (like a Seekins or Badger Ordnance). The factory does not include a base.
Can I use standard Remington 700 triggers?
Yes. The Reaper H-Tac uses a 700-pattern trigger interface. You can drop in a Timney Calvin Elite or a TriggerTech Diamond without any fitting.
What is the thread pitch on the muzzle?
5/8×24. That’s standard for .30-caliber suppressors and brakes. You’ll need a 1/2×28 adapter if you’re running a 6.5mm or smaller can.
