Why Choose the CT Rival XP in 7mm PRC (22")
7 PRC done right: Purpose-built for long, high-BC 7mm bullets, the 7mm PRC provides flat trajectories, predictable wind drift, and credible terminal energy—a standout for elk, mule deer, and pronghorn at verified ranges.
22" “go-anywhere” length: Keeps overall length short and lively for brush, vehicles, scabbards, and suppressed setups (verify thread pitch), while maintaining solver-trustworthy velocity for consistent dope.
CT Rival XP platform: Field-tuned stock geometry, smart weight distribution, and hard-use materials deliver mountain-rifle manners without sacrificing precision.
XP trigger & ergonomics: A neutral wrist angle, repeatable cheek weld, and a crisp, consistent break make it easier to stabilize quickly from bipods, tripods, packs, or prone.
MBTR field finish: Durable, low-glare coating that shrugs off straps, brush, and weather while blending into alpine rock and timber shade.
Real-World Performance (Not Just Paper)
Shorter barrels shine where hunts actually happen. The 22-inch tube keeps the rifle quick in tight cover and on steep sidehills, while the 7 PRC’s efficient case architecture preserves downrange speed for cross-canyon shots. Expect linear recoil tracking, repeatable cold-bore behavior, and honest wind holds across temperature swings and density altitudes. Add a suppressor or brake (where lawful) and the platform becomes even calmer with cleaner sight pictures and faster follow-ups.
Built for Modern Optics & Accessories
Dialing-friendly receiver: Ideal with FFP 4–16x, 3–18x, or 5–25x optics featuring generous elevation travel and tactile, repeatable turrets.
Forend versatility: Interfaces cleanly with bipods, tripods, and Arca-style accessories so you can lock in fast on off-camber terrain and natural rests.
Data-driven confidence: Zero carefully, confirm at distance, and true your ballistic solver at local DA—so your dope mirrors your impacts on steel and on game.
Where This 7 PRC Rifle Excels
Elk & Mule Deer in Windy Country: High-BC 7mm projectiles at PRC speeds deliver predictable holds and serious terminal performance at ethical ranges.
Backcountry & Timber: The 22" length keeps OAL manageable for brush and treeline setups while staying authoritative across a canyon.
Crossover Precision: Hunt-weight handling that behaves on steel—so off-season reps translate directly to in-season success.
