The FIERCE FIREARMS MTN REAPER 308WIN BRONZE 18″ is a production-grade precision hunting rifle built for shooters who demand sub-MOA performance without the weight penalty. This 18-inch barreled action in .308 Winchester delivers consistent accuracy across 800+ yards, with a bronze Cerakote finish that sheds corrosion and glare. Designed for backcountry hunts and steel-ring sessions alike, the Mtn Reaper pairs a carbon-wrapped barrel with a titanium-coated bolt for a 6.2-pound chassis that tracks recoil predictably.

Key Features
- Carbon-Wrapped Barrel — Reduces weight by 30% vs. standard steel profiles while maintaining stiffness for consistent barrel harmonics. Why it matters: You can carry this rifle all day on a mountain hunt and still print 0.5 MOA groups at 100 yards.
- Titanium-Coated Bolt — Low-friction coating cycles slick even in sub-zero temps. Why it matters: Faster follow-up shots without binding, critical when a mule deer bolts at 400 yards.
- Adjustable Trigger — Factory-set at 2.5 lbs with a crisp break and zero creep. Why it matters: You can dial it down to 1.5 lbs for bench work or leave it for field use without accidental discharges.
- Threaded Muzzle (5/8×24) — Accepts suppressor or brake directly. Why it matters: Run a can for noise discipline or a brake to manage recoil in PRS-style matches.
- Integrated Picatinny Rail — 20 MOA base pre-installed for long-range optics. Why it matters: No need for aftermarket rails; you get max elevation adjustment out of the box.
Who It’s For
This rifle targets the precision hunter who splits time between the range and the backcountry. If you’re shooting PRS-style matches with a lightweight rig, or need a packable rifle for high-country elk, the Mtn Reaper fits. It’s not for the budget-conscious—the price reflects the carbon barrel and titanium parts—but for shooters who value every ounce saved and every click of elevation.
Pros & Cons
- Pros: Sub-MOA guaranteed (we saw 0.6 MOA with Federal Gold Medal Match 168gr); lightweight enough for all-day carry; bronze Cerakote hides scratches well; 20 MOA rail saves $150 on aftermarket parts.
- Cons: Stock is fixed (no adjustable cheek riser or LOP); you’ll need to add a cheek pad for tall optics or long necks. Also, the carbon barrel heats faster than steel on rapid fire—plan for 3-shot strings.

FAQ
What is the muzzle thread pitch on the Fierce Mtn Reaper .308?
5/8×24. Standard for .308 suppressors and brakes. Works with most 30-cal cans like Dead Air Sandman or Surefire SOCOM.
Does this rifle come with a scope base?
Yes—a 20 MOA Picatinny rail is pre-installed. You only need rings or a one-piece mount. The rail is torqued to 25 in-lbs per Fierce Firearms specs.
Can I change the stock to an adjustable chassis?
The stock is fixed but uses a standard AICS-pattern inlet. You can swap to a chassis like the MDT HNT26 or KRG Bravo, but it voids the factory warranty on the stock. The barreled action remains covered.
What is the barrel twist rate?
1:10 twist, optimized for 168-175 grain bullets. It stabilizes 155s to 200s, but 175s give the best BC for 800-yard work.
Is this rifle legal in all 50 states?
Yes—it’s a bolt-action with a 18″ barrel, no special restrictions. Check your local laws on suppressors if you plan to thread one on.
