The horizon firearms venatic 7mm prc 22″ carbon fiber stock is a purpose-built precision hunting rifle that shaves weight without sacrificing accuracy. Chambered in 7mm PRC, it pairs a Stiller Wombat action with a 22-inch Benchmark 416R stainless barrel, spiral-fluted and factory-threaded. The Iota EKO X carbon fiber stock with thumb detents and a negative comb keeps you behind the glass fast, while the TriggerTech trigger breaks clean at a consistent pull weight. This is a rifle built for the shooter who demands sub-MOA performance from a packable platform.

Key Features
- Stiller Wombat Action – Why it matters: A controlled-round-feed action with a one-piece bolt that delivers reliable extraction and a smooth, short throw, critical for fast follow-ups in the field.
- Benchmark 416R Stainless Barrel (22″ Spiral-Fluted) – Why it matters: 416R steel is the standard for match-grade barrels; the spiral fluting reduces weight and dissipates heat faster, keeping your POI consistent during strings.
- Iota EKO X Carbon Fiber Stock with Thumb Detents – Why it matters: The negative comb and long grip allow a natural cheek weld and consistent eye alignment, even with a heavy jacket or pack, so you don’t fight the stock to get on target.
- TriggerTech Trigger – Why it matters: A fully adjustable, zero-creep trigger that breaks at a crisp 2.5 lb pull from the factory, giving you a predictable release every shot.
- Iota Sim Brake Muzzle Device – Why it matters: Reduces felt recoil by up to 40%, letting you spot impacts through the scope and stay in the gun for faster follow-ups.
Who It’s For
This rifle is for the competition shooter who also hunts—someone who wants a single rig that can hang on a PRS-style barricade one weekend and pack up a mountain the next. If you’re shooting factory 7mm PRC loads and still expecting sub-0.75 MOA groups, this is your platform. It’s also for the handloader who wants to push 180-grain ELD-X bullets at 2950 fps without a 10-pound barrel.
Pros & Cons
Pros: Lightweight carbon stock, match-grade barrel, excellent trigger, threaded for suppressors/brakes, proven Stiller action.
Cons: The Iota EKO X stock has a narrow forend that can feel cramped for shooters with large hands; you may need to add a bag rider for PRS-style positional work.
