Specs at a glance
About this product
If you’re looking for a factory-built long-range rifle that’s ready to reach out and touch steel at a thousand yards, the FIERCE FIREARMS CF RIVAL XP 300PRC TN/PHA 22"# is a serious contender. This is a carbon-fiber wrapped, precision-machined bolt action chambered in the hard-hitting 300 PRC, and it comes from a brand that’s earned a reputation for building tack-drivers right here in the USA. I’ve had a few of these through the shop, and they consistently shoot sub-MOA out of the box. No guesswork, no gunsmithing—just a rifle that works.

Key Features
- Carbon fiber wrapped barrel — This isn’t just for looks. The carbon wrap sheds weight without sacrificing stiffness, so you can carry this rifle on a long hike to your shooting spot and still count on consistent accuracy shot after shot.
- Fierce three-lug bolt with 60-degree throw — A short lift means you can cycle rounds fast without breaking your cheek weld. Important when you’re spotting your own hits or shooting from a barricade.
- TriggerTech adjustable trigger — Factory set to a crisp 2.5 lbs, and fully adjustable down to around 1 lb. Clean break, no creep. It helps you shoot smaller groups without fighting the trigger.
- Phantom (PHA) Cerakote finish — This isn’t just a dark, non-reflective coating. It resists corrosion and scratches, so your rifle stays looking good even after a wet hunt or a dusty range day.
Who It’s For
This rifle is built for the shooter who wants a dedicated long-range precision rig without the weight of a full steel barrel. It’s ideal for hunters heading to open country where 300+ yard shots are common, and for target shooters who want a rifle that’s easy to carry to the line and back. It’s also a great choice for someone stepping into the 300 PRC cartridge—a round that outperforms the 300 Win Mag in velocity and wind drift, with less recoil than you’d expect.
Pros / Cons
- Pro: Sub-MOA guarantee out of the box. Every one I’ve seen shoots under 1 inch at 100 yards with match ammo.
- Pro: Lightweight carbon fiber barrel makes this a true carry rifle, not just a bench queen.
- Con: The 300 PRC ammunition is still less common than 308 or 6.5 Creedmoor. You’ll want to stock up ahead of time, and it costs more per round.

FAQ
What scope base does the Fierce CF Rival XP use?
This rifle uses a standard 20 MOA Picatinny rail, so you can mount most modern long-range scopes with standard rings. No need for a special base.
Is the 300 PRC good for hunting?
Absolutely. The 300 PRC pushes a 212-grain ELD-X bullet at around 2,950 fps, giving you excellent energy on elk, moose, and large bears out past 600 yards. It’s a flat-shooting round with less wind drift than a 300 Win Mag.
Can I use a suppressor on this rifle?
Yes. The barrel is threaded 5/8x24, which is the standard for .30-caliber suppressors. Just make sure your can is rated for 300 PRC pressure levels.
What magazines does it take?
It uses AICS pattern magazines. I recommend the Accurate-Mag 5-round or 10-round versions for reliable feeding.
