If your hunts take you from timber line to wide-open basins, this is a purpose-built tool for ethical shots when it counts.
Why the 6.8 Western RIVAL FP CRB
Heavy-for-caliber performance: The 6.8 Western excels with long, high-BC bullets, giving you flatter trajectories and better wind resistance while maintaining meaningful terminal energy on elk-sized game.
24" precision barrel: A smart length for maximizing velocity without turning your rifle into a pole. The 24" tube supports consistent speeds for stable dope and repeatable hits across changing weather.
RIVAL FP action: Precision-machined for smooth cycling, positive extraction, and consistent lock-up—the fundamentals behind reliable accuracy.
MBTR finish: A durable, low-glare field finish that shrugs off brush, straps, and weather, keeping your rifle protected and professional-looking season after season.
Built for Real Hunts in Real Weather
From cold-bore shots at first light to windy, high-country afternoons, the RIVAL FP CRB is designed to act the same way every time you shoulder it. The stock geometry promotes a repeatable cheek weld, the forend sits naturally on bipods, tripods, or pack rests, and the trigger’s clean break encourages steady follow-through so you can spot impacts and make informed decisions before a follow-up shot.
Field-Balanced Control
Ergonomics that matter: Neutral grip angle and a stable, recoil-taming stock profile help you stay behind the rifle in awkward terrain.
Clean-breaking trigger: Predictable pull and minimal creep convert focus into smaller groups and more confidence at distance.
Intuitive controls: Positive safety, sure bolt lift, and smooth feeding support quick, decisive operation when the shot window is closing.
Long-Range Confidence, Ethical Intent
The 6.8 Western was designed to put high-BC .277 bullets on target with authority while managing recoil sensibly. In the RIVAL FP CRB platform, that translates into a rifle you can train with all off-season and carry all day—then rely on when the wind starts twitching grass on a mid-slope saddle.
