Light in the pack, steady on target, and confident at distance—the FIERCE Twisted Rival XP chambered in 6.5 PRC with a 22-inch barrel and rugged MBTR (sometimes listed as MDB/TR) field finish is built for hunters who want cutting-edge 6.5mm ballistics in a mountain-ready platform. The Twisted Rival’s weight-conscious DNA pairs with the XP’s feature-forward ergonomics to deliver smooth cycling, straight recoil tracking, and repeatable accuracy from the first cold-bore shot to the last.
Why Choose the Twisted Rival XP in 6.5 PRC (22")
Modern 6.5 PRC ballistics: Optimized to stabilize long, high-BC bullets for flat trajectories, predictable wind holds, and ethical energy on deer, pronghorn, and elk (with appropriate bullets and within your verified capabilities).
22" precision barrel: Keeps overall length manageable—especially with a suppressor—while maintaining consistent velocity for solver-trustworthy data across temperatures and elevations.
Twisted Rival pedigree: Spiral-fluted aesthetics (where configured) shave ounces, shed debris, and enhance cooling while giving the rifle its distinctive “Twisted” look.
XP ergonomic refinement: A hunt-weight chassis with a crisp trigger, optic-friendly receiver, and practical forend geometry that makes off-season practice translate directly to fall tags.
MBTR (MDB/TR) finish: Low-glare, abrasion-resistant colorway that blends into alpine rock, timber shade, and open sage while shrugging off hard seasons.
Field-Driven Control & Comfort
Hunt-ready stock geometry supports a repeatable cheek weld and neutral wrist angle so your sight picture stays steady from bipods, tripods, packs, or prone.
Clean-breaking precision trigger reduces shooter input at the break—tightening groups and helping you spot impact for immediate, data-driven corrections.
Intuitive controls—sure bolt lift, positive safety, and smooth feeding—support quick, decisive manipulations when your shot window is measured in seconds.
Real-World Performance, Not Just Paper
The 22-inch tube is the sweet spot for the 6.5 PRC in the field: lively in timber and scabbards, balanced with a brake or suppressor (verify threading on your exact rifle), and still delivering the downrange consistency that makes this cartridge shine. Combined with high-BC 6.5mm projectiles, the Twisted Rival XP rewards disciplined fundamentals with straight recoil tracking, trustworthy wind calls, and cold-bore consistency from dawn chill to afternoon thermals.
Optics & Accessory Ready
The receiver footprint is built for dialing scopes with generous elevation travel. The forend interfaces smoothly with bipods, tripods, and Arca-style accessories so you can stabilize fast—even on off-camber terrain. Pair it with a robust FFP 3–18x or 4–16x optic, confirm zero, and true your solver at your local density altitude for a confident, repeatable setup.
