The Fierce Firearms Carbon Rival FP 7mm Rem Mag 22-inch is a lightweight production rifle that delivers sub-MOA precision straight from the box.

Key Features

• C3 Carbon Barrel Technology — The carbon fiber wrap over a 416R stainless steel core reduces barrel whip and heat soak. WHY IT MATTERS: You get the thermal stability of a heavy contour barrel without the weight penalty, meaning your point of impact stays consistent through a five-round string.
• 70-Degree Bolt Throw — The short-lift two-lug action clears even a 56mm objective bell without interference. WHY IT MATTERS: You can cycle rounds fast from prone without lifting your cheek from the stock, keeping your eye box aligned for the next shot.
• Fully Adjustable Carbon Stock — Comb height adjusts via a threaded post, and the vertical palm-swell grip locks your trigger hand into a repeatable position. WHY IT MATTERS: You dial in your natural point of aim and eliminate parallax shift, which is critical for holding 1/2 MOA at distance.
• Radial Muzzle Brake — Ported brake reduces felt recoil by approximately 40% compared to an unbraked barrel. WHY IT MATTERS: You stay on glass for follow-up shots and spot your own impacts, which speeds up your wind calls.
• 1/2 MOA Accuracy Guarantee — Every rifle is test-fired and guaranteed to print half-minute groups with factory match ammunition. WHY IT MATTERS: You aren’t buying a lottery ticket — this rifle has a verified floor for precision.

Who It’s For

This rifle is built for the backcountry hunter who also punches paper at 600+ yards. The 7mm Rem Mag gives you the velocity to buck wind on elk-sized targets, while the 22-inch barrel keeps the overall length short enough for a scabbard. It’s also a solid choice for the precision shooter who wants a single rifle for PRS-style hunting matches and steel plate days. If you’re the kind of shooter who logs DOPE in a Kestrel and weighs every round, this rig fits.

Pros / Cons

• Pros: Sub-7-pound weight, guaranteed 1/2 MOA accuracy, adjustable comb for optic alignment, radial brake tames 7mm Rem Mag recoil, 70-degree throw clears big scopes.
• Cons: The factory trigger is a two-stage unit with some creep out of the box — expect to spend 30 minutes with a trigger gauge and a stone if you want a crisp 1.5-lb break. Also, the carbon barrel can string shots if you run a fast ten-round string without cooling; this is a hunting rifle, not a competition burner.

FAQ

What twist rate does the Fierce Carbon Rival FP 7mm Rem Mag 22-inch have?

Per Fierce Firearms specs, the barrel has a 1:8.5 twist rate, optimized for 162- to 175-grain bullets. This stabilizes the heavy-for-caliber projectiles you’d use for long-range hunting or ELR steel.

Does the rifle come with a scope base or rings?

It ships with a one-piece Picatinny rail installed (20 MOA taper). You’ll need to supply rings or a mount. The rail has eight mounting slots, so you have flexibility for eye relief.

Can I replace the factory muzzle brake with a suppressor?

Yes. The barrel is threaded 5/8×24, which is a common suppressor mount thread. Just remove the radial brake and install your direct-thread can. Note that the carbon wrap stops about 1 inch from the muzzle, so you have enough exposed steel for a shoulder.

Is the stock adjustable for length of pull?

No, the stock does not have an adjustable length of pull. It is fixed at 13.5 inches. You can add a spacer or swap the buttpad, but there is no sliding mechanism. This is a trade-off for the weight savings.
