January 2025, Accokeek, MD – Part of Franchi’s ever-growing lineup of Momentum premium bolt-action hunting rifles, the Momentum Varmint Elite is a purpose-driven rifle developed for the dedicated predator hunter. Featuring a heavy contour, spiral-fluted barrel, one-piece Picatinny top rail, LOP and cheek riser adjustability, muzzle brake, and integrated bipod and sling mounting points, the Momentum Varmint Elite is the answer for long-range varmint work.
Now, the Momentum Varmint Elite adds a new dimension in field performance with the introduction of an all-new camo pattern for 2025. Franchi Verdant™ is one of three new Franchi-exclusive camo patterns to come online in 2025 and was selected as an ideal pattern for the Momentum Varmint Elite.
Franchi designers created the new Verdant™ pattern by employing the concept of micro and macro elements to better break up a rifle’s horizontal profile in the field. With a color palette hinting at bright green clover, tan prairie grasses, rich brown earth, and deep shadows, the Verdant™ pattern offers effective concealment across a broad swath of environments, seasons, and terrains.
The Momentum Varmint Elite in Franchi Verdant™ seamlessly pairs with a Midnight Bronze Cerakote barreled action, bolt handle, and muzzle brake. Chambers offered with the new camo pattern include .223 Remington, .22-250, and .308 Winchester. All barrels are 24-inches long, and each model comes standard with a TSA recoil pad for up to 50-percent felt recoil reduction, one flush and one extended removeable box magazine, a 60-degree throw 3-lug bolt, the 2-4-lb Relia adjustable trigger and is accuracy tested to ensure a 1 MOA guarantee with premium factory ammunition. MSRP: $1249.
