The Faxon FX7 bolt action rifle delivers precision shooting capabilities in a robust platform chambered in 308 Winchester. This rifle combines proven bolt-action reliability with modern materials and manufacturing processes for consistent accuracy across multiple shooting disciplines.
What Makes This Different
The FX7 features a 22-inch barrel with black nitride finish that provides superior corrosion resistance and reduces barrel wear compared to standard chrome-lined barrels. The nitride treatment penetrates the steel surface, creating a harder, more durable finish that maintains accuracy over extended round counts. The OD green polymer stock offers lightweight durability while providing a secure grip in various weather conditions.
Key Features
- 22-inch barrel with black nitride finish for enhanced durability and accuracy
- 308 Winchester chambering for versatile hunting and precision shooting applications
- 5+1 capacity with detachable box magazine system
- OD green polymer stock with ergonomic design and textured grip surfaces
- Precision-machined bolt action with smooth cycling and consistent lockup
- Picatinny rail system for optics mounting compatibility
- Threaded muzzle for suppressor or muzzle brake attachment
Field performance centers on the rifle's ability to maintain sub-MOA accuracy with quality ammunition while handling the recoil characteristics of the 308 Winchester cartridge effectively. The longer barrel length maximizes velocity potential from the cartridge, making it suitable for medium to long-range hunting applications and precision shooting competitions. The polymer stock construction reduces overall weight without sacrificing structural integrity in adverse weather conditions.
