January 2025, Accokeek, MD – In a nod to the growing popularity of the impressive 7 PRC cartridge for long-range competition and extended-range hunting scenarios, Franchi announces the addition of a 7 PRC chambering in its Momentum Elite bolt-action rifle.
The 7 PRC fits neatly between the notable 6.5 PRC and 300 PRC cartridges, offering hard-hitting magnum performance in a high B.C. bullet that knows how to stretch out effective hunting ranges. It is a chambering that is an ideal match for the 1 MOA precision guarantee of the Momentum Elite rifle.
The Momentum Elite draws on Franchi’s rich Italian craftsmanship and penchant for performance-driven technological advancements to deliver a bolt-action rifle hunters throughout the world have come to rely on for their big-game pursuits. The Evolved Ergonom-X stock system offers the kind of positive handling and comfort that make tough field shots easier and on the mark. The free-floating, cold-hammer-forged chrome molybdenum barrel and precision action coupled with the proven one-piece, 3-lug Dependa Bolt presents an exceptionally accurate system that Franchi backs with its 1 MOA guarantee when using premium factory ammo.
Further, the new Momentum Elite 7 PRC comes dressed in the new Franchi Biome™ camo pattern. This is a Franchi-exclusive pattern consisting of shadow and bottomland earth tones along with light and dark green elements that offer excellent concealment in a broad range of hunting environments and terrain.
Additional features of the Momentum Elite 7 PRC include the adjustable Relia Trigger, TSA recoil pad, muzzle brake, box-type removeable magazine, a one-piece Picatinny rail for ease of optic mounting, and recessed sling attachment points. MSRP: $899.
