Description
The Fierce Reaper H-Tac 7MM BC Tungsten 22″ Carbon Barrel is a bolt-action rifle built for hunters who need to reach out and touch game at long range without hauling a boat anchor up the mountain. Chambered in 7MM Backcountry, this rig pairs a lightweight C3 carbon fiber barrel with a rigid carbon/aluminum chassis. It’s drilled and tapped for optics, threaded for brakes or suppressors, and finished in tough Tungsten Cerakote. For the hunter who demands precision without the weight penalty, this rifle delivers.

Key Features
- C3 Carbon Fiber Barrel – The 22-inch carbon-wrapped barrel sheds weight while maintaining stiffness for consistent accuracy shot after shot. This matters when you’re hiking miles into elk country and every ounce counts.
- Tungsten Cerakote Finish – Corrosion- and scratch-resistant coating that stands up to rain, snow, and rough handling. You can trust this finish to hold up through a wet week in the backcountry.
- 700-Pattern Receiver – Drilled and tapped for standard Remington 700 scope bases and triggers, so you can mount your preferred optics and aftermarket triggers without gunsmithing. That means less hassle and more time on the mountain.
- M-LOK Forearm – Full-length M-LOK slots let you attach bipods, sling mounts, or night vision gear exactly where you need them. This is critical for building a versatile hunting rig that adapts to different hunts.
- Threaded Muzzle – The barrel is threaded for muzzle brakes or suppressors, reducing recoil and noise. For Western hunters chasing mule deer or pronghorn, this keeps your shot placement precise during follow-ups.
Who It’s For
This rifle is for the serious mountain hunter who covers ground on foot and needs a tool that shoots flat and stays light. It’s also for the long-range target shooter who appreciates a repeatable, accurate platform without the bulk of a heavy steel barrel. If you’re the guy who glassing from a ridge at dawn and taking a 400-yard shot at dusk, this rig is built for you.
Pros & Cons
- Pro: Sub-7-pound weight makes it a dream to carry all day. Con: The carbon barrel can heat up faster than a steel barrel during rapid fire strings, so it’s not ideal for high-volume range sessions.
- Pro: 7MM Backcountry offers flat trajectory and retained energy at extended ranges. Con: Ammo availability is still limited compared to mainstream calibers like .308 or 6.5 Creedmoor.
- Pro: Excellent build quality from Fierce Firearms, a brand known for precision hunting rifles. Con: The price point is higher than some entry-level long-range rifles.
