Description
Backcountry rifles usually make you pick between weight, accuracy, and packability. The MTN Reaper 2.0 refuses to play that game. Fierce built this thing around a dual-lug titanium action seated in an ultra-light magnesium chassis, then wrapped the whole package in carbon fiber, from the folding buttstock to the M-LOK handguard to the hand-lapped C3 carbon barrel. The result is the lightest folding chassis rifle in the Fierce lineup, starting around 5.8 pounds, and it still carries a half MOA accuracy guarantee. That is a serious promise for a rifle this light.
What Makes the MTN Reaper 2.0 Different
The 2.0 update brought a redesigned folding stock built for smoother, more durable operation, plus a push-button adjustable cheekpiece with added carbon fiber reinforcement. The stock folds to the side and protects the bolt handle while the rifle is strapped to your pack, then locks back into place when it is time to get to work. The TriggerTech Primary Pro trigger arrives set at a crisp 2.5 pounds and adjusts from 1.5 to 4, so you can dial it to your preference without a trip to the gunsmith. QD flush cups and a detachable dropbox magazine round out a package that clearly had real mountain hunters involved in the design.
A 6.5 PRC Built for the Long Haul
This chambering is right at home here. The 6.5 PRC delivers magnum-level velocity with high BC bullets and manageable recoil, making it a favorite for deer, antelope, and elk at extended distances. The 20 inch barrel keeps the overall package compact and balanced, with a 1:8 twist to stabilize the heavy match-style hunting bullets the cartridge was designed around. The muzzle comes threaded 5/8×24 with a NIX muzzle brake installed, so you can run the brake to tame recoil or spin on a suppressor and go quiet. Capacity is 3+1 from the detachable magazine, and a simple two-position safety keeps operation intuitive with gloves on.
In the grey finish, this is a clean, purposeful rifle that looks as good in the safe as it does on a scree slope. If your hunts involve more climbing than driving, this one earns its spot on the pack.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is different about the MTN Reaper 2.0 compared to the original MTN Reaper?
The 2.0 is the current generation with an all-new folding stock design built for smoother, more durable operation, plus a push-button adjustable cheekpiece reinforced with additional carbon fiber. The core recipe stays the same: titanium dual-lug action, magnesium chassis, and a hand-lapped C3 carbon fiber barrel. If you see a Reaper with a different-looking buttstock, it is likely the earlier version.
Is the Fierce MTN Reaper 2.0 suppressor ready?
Yes. The 20 inch carbon fiber barrel is threaded 5/8×24 and ships with a NIX muzzle brake installed. You can remove the brake and thread on most common suppressors directly, which is a popular setup on this rifle given how light and packable it already is.
How accurate is the MTN Reaper 2.0?
Fierce backs this rifle with a half MOA accuracy guarantee using quality factory ammunition, which is impressive for a rifle starting around 5.8 pounds. The hand-lapped match grade barrel, titanium action, and adjustable TriggerTech Primary Pro trigger all contribute to that consistency. The 1:8 twist handles the heavy, high BC bullets that make 6.5 PRC shine at distance.
Is 6.5 PRC with a 20 inch barrel enough for elk?
Plenty of hunters take elk with 6.5 PRC every season, and it is an excellent choice for deer and antelope as well. You give up some velocity with a 20 inch tube versus a 22 or 24 inch barrel, but the cartridge still delivers strong downrange energy with good bullet selection. For a rifle you are hauling up a mountain, the trade for a shorter, lighter, better-balanced package is one most backcountry hunters gladly make.
