The Fierce Firearms Twisted Rival XP 7mm PRC 20″ bolt action is a production-ready precision rifle built for shooters who demand accuracy at distance without the custom-gun price tag. Chambered in the hot 7mm PRC and fitted with a 20″ fluted, threaded barrel, this rig pairs a stainless dual-lug action with a C3 carbon Rival stock and an adjustable trigger. It ships with a radial muzzlebrake and a drop-box magazine, so you’re ready for the range or the field right out of the box.

Key Features
- 20″ Fluted, Threaded Barrel – WHY IT MATTERS: The fluting sheds weight and helps the barrel cool faster between strings, while the 5/8×24 threading lets you mount a suppressor or brake without a gunsmith. At 20″, it’s short enough for hunting blinds but still pushes 7mm PRC bullets fast enough for 1,000-yard steel.
- Stainless Dual-Lug Action – WHY IT MATTERS: This action is hand-lapped for smooth cycling and has a 60° bolt throw, so you can run follow-up shots quickly without bumping a scope. The stainless build resists rust in wet weather, a real plus for backcountry hunts.
- C3 Carbon Rival Stock with Adjustable Comb – WHY IT MATTERS: The carbon-fiber stock keeps the rifle light (around 6.4 lbs), and the adjustable comb lets you dial in cheek weld for perfect eye alignment with your scope. No more shimming or duct-tape risers.
- Match-Grade Adjustable Trigger – WHY IT MATTERS: Trigger pull is adjustable from roughly 1.5 to 3.5 lbs, so you can set it light for precision work or a bit heavier for hunting. The break is crisp with zero creep, which means tighter groups at distance.
- Radial Muzzlebrake & Drop-Box Magazine – WHY IT MATTERS: The radial brake cuts recoil noticeably, letting you spot your own hits through the scope. The drop-box magazine feeds reliably and allows quick reloads in the field—no fumbling with a hinged floorplate.
Who It’s For
This rifle is for the recreational shooter who wants a long-range setup without building a custom gun. It’s also a solid pick for first-time precision buyers because it comes ready to shoot—you just add a scope and rings. Hunters who need a light, accurate rifle for mountain country will appreciate the carbon stock and 20″ barrel.
Pros & Cons
- Pro: Sub-MOA accuracy guarantee from the factory (many owners report 0.5–0.75 MOA with quality ammo).
- Pro: Lightweight at ~6.4 lbs—easy to carry all day.
- Con: The carbon stock is stiff but can transmit more felt recoil than a heavier chassis. A brake helps, but it’s still a snappy 7mm PRC.

FAQ
Is the 7mm PRC a good caliber for long-range shooting?
Yes. The 7mm PRC pushes 175-grain bullets at roughly 2,950 fps from a 20″ barrel, giving you flat trajectories and solid wind-bucking ability out to 1,200 yards. It’s a modern cartridge that balances recoil and performance well.
Does this rifle come with a scope or rings?
No. The Twisted Rival XP ships as a barreled action with stock and trigger—you’ll need to add your own scope and rings. The receiver is drilled and tapped for standard 8-40 bases.
Can I use this rifle for hunting?
Absolutely. At 6.4 lbs and with a 20″ barrel, it’s light enough for spot-and-stalk hunting, and the 7mm PRC is effective on deer, elk, and similar game. The radial brake helps with quick follow-up shots.
What twist rate is the barrel?
Per Fierce Firearms specs, the barrel has a 1:8 twist, which stabilizes bullets from 140 to 195 grains—perfect for the 7mm PRC’s heavy-for-caliber projectiles.
