The Fierce Firearms Twisted Rage FRG65CM20BU 6.5mm 20″ is a production-ready precision rifle built to deliver 1/2 MOA out of the box, chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor with a fluted, threaded barrel, Cerakoted steel receiver, and a C3 carbon Monte Carlo stock. It’s designed around repeatable fundamentals for the shooter who demands consistency at distance.

Key Features
- Fluted, threaded 20″ match-grade barrel — why it matters: reduces weight by ~0.3 lbs while maintaining stiffness for consistent harmonics; thread pitch 5/8×24 accepts your suppressor or brake directly.
- Radial muzzle brake (included, installed) — why it matters: cuts felt recoil by roughly 40% so you spot your own impacts without a heavy bipod load, critical for follow-up shots in PRS-style stages.
- C3 carbon Monte Carlo stock with integral Picatinny rail — why it matters: the carbon fiber construction damps vibration better than aluminum chassis, and the integral rail eliminates zero shift from loose scope base screws.
- 70-degree bolt throw with 3-position safety — why it matters: the short lift clears low-mounted scopes without interference, and the 3-position (safe/load/fire) lets you unload with the bolt closed.
- Manufacturer 1/2 MOA accuracy guarantee — why it matters: Fierce Firearms backs this rifle with a written guarantee that it shoots sub-0.5 MOA with match ammo, verified at the factory.
Who It’s For
This rifle is for the long-range shooter who wants a production gun that competes with customs. If you’re shooting PRS tactical matches, hunting elk at 600+ yards, or building a DMR for steel out to 1,200 meters, the Twisted Rage delivers without a 12-month wait. It’s also a solid option for the reloader who wants to fine-tune loads around a consistent 1:8 twist barrel.
Pros / Cons
- Pros: Sub-MOA guarantee out of the box, carbon stock reduces weight to 7.5 lbs, radial brake works well for recoil management, detachable magazine feeds reliably.
- Cons: The C3 stock is not adjustable for length of pull or cheek riser—you’ll need a cheek pad if you run high rings or a suppressor. Also, the trigger is factory-set at 3.5 lbs; some precision shooters prefer a sub-2 lb break.
