The CHRISTENSEN ARMS EVOKE HNTR 300PRC BLK/GRN 22″ is a factory-built precision hunting rifle that delivers sub-MOA accuracy straight from the box. Weighing just 6.5 pounds, this 300 PRC platform combines a carbon-fiber wrapped barrel with a lightweight polymer stock, making it a serious tool for backcountry hunters who demand repeatable long-range performance. Per Christensen Arms specs, the Evoke HNTR uses a hand-laid carbon fiber stock and a 416R stainless steel barrel with a Cerakote finish for corrosion resistance. Chambered in the hard-hitting 300 PRC, it pushes heavy 212-grain ELD-X bullets at 2850 fps, giving you 700+ yard ethical reach on elk and mule deer.

Key Features
- Carbon-Fiber Wrapped Barrel: The 22-inch barrel uses a carbon fiber sleeve over a 416R stainless steel core, reducing weight by 30% compared to a standard steel barrel. Why it matters: This lets you carry a full-size magnum rifle without the bulk, critical for high-elevation spot-and-stalk hunts where every pound counts.
- Hand-Laid Carbon Fiber Stock: The stock is built with a hand-laid carbon fiber process, giving you a rigid, vibration-dampening platform. Why it matters: A stiffer stock reduces harmonics, which translates to tighter groups—especially when you’re ringing steel at 800 yards.
- TriggerTech Adjustable Trigger: Factory-set at 2.5 pounds, this trigger breaks clean with zero creep. Why it matters: A consistent, crisp trigger pull eliminates shooter-induced error, letting you focus on wind calls and elevation holds.
- Integral 20 MOA Rail: The receiver comes with a machined-in 20 MOA rail, eliminating the need for a separate base. Why it matters: This gives you enough elevation adjustment to dial out to 1200 yards with most LPVOs or tactical scopes, without running out of turret travel.
- Detachable Box Magazine: Uses a 3-round AICS-pattern magazine for fast reloads. Why it matters: Standard AICS compatibility means you can swap in 5- or 10-round mags for training or competition.
Who It’s For
This rifle is built for the precision-minded hunter who shoots out to 600+ yards and refuses to compromise on weight. If you’re running a 300 PRC for elk, moose, or long-range steel, you need a rifle that balances portability with repeatable accuracy. The Evoke HNTR is also for the reloader who wants to push 225-grain Bergers at 2800 fps without a 10-pound rifle.

FAQ
Does the Christensen Arms Evoke HNTR come with a scope base?
Yes. The receiver has an integral 20 MOA Picatinny rail machined directly into the top surface. No separate base is needed—just mount your rings or a one-piece mount directly to the rail.
What twist rate does the 300 PRC barrel have?
Per Christensen Arms specs, the 22-inch barrel has a 1:8 twist rate. This stabilizes heavy bullets from 200 to 230 grains, including the Hornady ELD-X 212-grain and Berger 225-grain Hybrids.
Is the Evoke HNTR legal for hunting in all states?
Yes, the 300 PRC is a straight-wall cartridge in most states, but check your local regulations for magazine capacity limits. The included 3-round magazine is compliant in all 50 states for hunting.
Can I use standard AICS magazines in this rifle?
Yes. The Evoke HNTR uses AICS-pattern magazines. You can swap in 5-round or 10-round AICS mags for range use or competition, but the factory 3-rounder is best for hunting.
