Fierce Firearms Carbon Rival XP 2.0 300 Win Mag Rifle

Fierce Firearms lists this Carbon Rival XP 2.0 as a bolt action rifle in 300 Winchester Magnum. A bolt gun in a belted magnum is about as classic a hunting setup as North America has produced. The action is stout, the chambering repeats, and there is nothing in the system that needs to be tuned around a heavy load. Cycle it, watch the animal, shoot again if the shot is there.

The cartridge is the reason anyone picks a rifle like this. 300 Winchester Magnum throws heavy bullets at velocities that keep a flat enough trajectory across canyon country and hold energy past the point where a standard cartridge stops being honest. Wind bothers it less than it bothers lighter bullets. Ammunition is carried by every major maker in loads from lighter deer bullets through heavy bonded and monolithic hunting projectiles. It is a lot of cartridge and it lets the shooter know that on every shot, so time behind it matters. Put in the practice and this becomes the rifle that goes on the hunt where the country is big and the shot is not going to be close.
