Key Features
- C3 Carbon Fiber Barrel — Why it matters: The hand-lapped liner and carbon wrap reduce weight to 6.8 lbs while maintaining sub-MOA accuracy, so you can carry it all day without fatigue and still hit at extended ranges.
- Titanium Dual-Lug Action — Why it matters: This action shaves ounces off the build and provides a smooth, reliable cycling stroke, critical for fast follow-up shots on game or steel.
- Adjustable Comb Stock with Integral Pic Rail — Why it matters: You can dial in cheek weld height for optic alignment and mount a bipod directly without aftermarket adapters, improving stability and comfort during long shots.
- Hinged Floor Plate Magazine — Why it matters: Quick unloading from the bottom means safer handling in the field, and you can top off the internal magazine without removing it.
- Two-Position Safety — Why it matters: A positive, audible click between safe and fire gives you confidence when chambering or unloading, especially in high-pressure hunting scenarios.
Who It’s For
This rifle is built for the backcountry hunter who needs a lightweight, accurate rifle for mountain stalks and long-range shots on elk, mule deer, or pronghorn. It also suits the precision shooter who wants a portable platform for steel out to 800+ yards without the bulk of a heavy target rifle. If you prioritize weight savings and accuracy in a ready-to-hunt package, the CT Rival FP fits.
Pros & Cons
- Pros: Incredibly light at 6.8 lbs for a 7mm Mag; C3 barrel delivers consistent accuracy; titanium action resists corrosion; adjustable comb fits most shooters; integral pic rail simplifies bipod mounting.
- Cons: The 20-inch barrel reduces muzzle velocity slightly compared to a 24-26 inch tube, which may affect long-range ballistics beyond 800 yards. Also, the proprietary action may limit aftermarket stock options.

FAQ
What is the effective range of the Fierce Firearms CT Rival FP in 7mm Rem Mag?
With the 20-inch barrel and quality ammunition, expect reliable accuracy to 800 yards on game-sized targets. Beyond that, the shorter barrel may drop velocity enough to affect terminal performance, but it remains capable for steel targets to 1000+ yards.
Does this rifle come with a scope or mounting hardware?
No, it does not include optics or rings. The receiver is drilled and tapped for standard scope bases, and the adjustable comb stock accommodates most medium to high rings. You’ll need to add your own optic and mounting system.
Is the CT Rival FP available in left-hand configuration?
This specific model is configured for right-hand operation only. Left-handed shooters should check with Fierce Firearms for custom or alternate options.
