The 25 Creedmoor is one of the more interesting cartridge releases in years, and Fierce built the Carbon Rival XP 2.0 to take full advantage of it. This isn't a rifle chambered in an afterthought caliber. The 25 Creedmoor necks the 6.5 Creedmoor case down to .257, giving you a short-action round with the case efficiency hunters already love, better wind resistance than a 6mm or 6.5, and noticeably less recoil than the 6.5 while still slinging heavy, high-BC bullets that hold their velocity way out past 600 yards. Paired with a 22-inch barrel, that combination adds up to a genuinely flat-shooting, low-drama hunting rifle.
At the heart of this rifle is Fierce's C3 Match Grade Carbon Barrel, a hand-lapped stainless steel liner wrapped in high-modulus carbon fiber. That construction keeps weight down while helping the barrel dissipate heat and hold its zero string after string. It rides on a proprietary Fierce dual-lug stainless action with a 700-pattern footprint, precision-cut raceways, and a 70-degree bolt throw that cycles fast and clears even oversized scope tubes with room to spare. Every Rival XP 2.0 carries a 0.5 MOA accuracy guarantee out of the box, which is not a small promise for a hunting rifle at this weight.
The carbon fiber Rival stock brings a vertical palm swell grip and a high negative comb cheekpiece, plus an adjustable comb so you can dial in the right cheek weld for your scope height. An integral rail up front makes bipod mounting simple, and the solid carbon bedding system keeps the action locked in place shot after shot. Feeding comes from a detachable drop box magazine for quick reloads in the field, and the trigger is a TriggerTech unit set from the factory at 2.5 pounds with room to adjust between 1.5 and 4 pounds depending on how light or heavy you like your pull.
Finished in a striking Black/Typhoon color scheme, this rifle is built for the hunter who wants a lightweight carbon platform without giving up the ballistic edge that comes with a modern, purpose-built cartridge. It's equally at home stalking western game or stretching legs on a known-distance range.
The 25 Creedmoor necks the 6.5 Creedmoor case down to a .257 bullet, which gives you noticeably less recoil while still running heavy, high-BC projectiles. It also drifts less in the wind than the 6.5 or 6mm Creedmoor, which matters more than raw bullet drop once you're stretching shots past a few hundred yards. It's built specifically around modern low-drag bullets, so it feels like a more refined version of the old quarter-bore cartridges.
It genuinely does both well. The lightweight carbon build and drop box magazine make it easy to carry into the backcountry, while the 0.5 MOA accuracy guarantee and flat-shooting cartridge give it real legs at distance on a range day. Most owners end up using it for both without feeling like they're compromising on either.
It ships with one detachable drop box magazine. The magazine system is designed for quick swaps in the field, so picking up a spare or two is worth considering if you plan on doing a lot of shooting in one outing.
The 25 Creedmoor was standardized with a 1:7.5 twist, which is considerably faster than older .25 caliber cartridges like the 25-06. That faster twist is what allows it to stabilize the heavier, high-BC bullets that make this cartridge worth building a rifle around in the first place.
Yes, the carbon fiber Rival stock includes an adjustable comb so you can raise or lower your cheek weld to match your scope height. Combined with the vertical palm swell grip, it's meant to fit a variety of body types and shooting positions rather than a single standard build.
No, this rifle ships bare so you can mount the optic setup you actually want. The receiver is drilled and tapped, so mounting a scope base is straightforward once you've picked your glass.
