The 25 Creedmoor has been the talk of the quarter bore crowd since it became a standardized cartridge, and the Core Bandit is Horizon's answer for anyone who wants a properly built rifle chambered for it from day one. Take the 6.5 Creedmoor case, neck it down to .257, and you get a round that launches heavy, high BC bullets on a flat path with noticeably less recoil than a 6.5. That combination makes it a genuine sweet spot for deer, antelope, and predators, and it is just as pleasant during a long afternoon of steel at distance.
This rifle comes out of Horizon's Core Series, which means it is assembled in limited annual runs using the same caliber of components you would find in their full custom builds. At the center is a Horizon Stiller action, a smooth cycling bolt design with a reputation that precision rifle folks already know well. A TriggerTech trigger breaks clean and consistent, a two position safety keeps controls simple, and a detachable AICS pattern magazine feeds five rounds with one more in the chamber.
The 22 inch 416R stainless steel barrel gives this cartridge the room it needs to build velocity, and Horizon's signature spiral fluting trims weight while helping the barrel shed heat between strings. The muzzle comes threaded, so adding a brake or suppressor is a five minute job instead of a gunsmith visit.
Horizon builds these rifles in house with the kind of fit and finish you would expect from a shop backed by generations of family craftsmanship. The iota EKO stock is texture painted for grip in wet or cold conditions, and its stable forend rides well on a pack, sticks, or bags. If you have been waiting for a serious factory built 25 Creedmoor, this one deserves a spot on your short list.
It is the 6.5 Creedmoor case necked down to .257, built from the ground up around heavy, high BC quarter bore bullets. You get a flat trajectory and strong wind performance with milder recoil than a 6.5 Creedmoor. That makes it a great fit for deer, antelope, and predators, plus long range target work.
Yes, it ships with a detachable AICS-pattern magazine for a 5+1 total capacity. Since AICS is one of the most common short action magazine footprints out there, picking up spares is easy and affordable.
You can. The 22 inch stainless barrel comes threaded from the factory, so it is ready for a brake or can without any gunsmithing. The 25 Creedmoor's moderate powder charge also suppresses nicely compared to bigger magnums.
No, it ships without an optic, which is typical for a precision rifle in this class. The Horizon Stiller action gives you a solid foundation for mounting quality glass, and a rifle like this deserves a scope that can keep up with the cartridge's long range potential.
