Franchi Horizon Varmint Elite Subalpine Rifle – Precision & Durability in the Field

The Franchi Horizon Varmint Elite Subalpine rifle offers precision and versatility for hunters and shooting enthusiasts, engineered to handle both long-range shooting and varmint hunting. With its Cerakote-coated barrel and Optifade Subalpine camouflage, this rifle stands out as a powerful tool designed for varmint hunting and field shooting in lowland and premontane vegetation.

Advanced Camouflage & Cerakote Coating

The Optifade Subalpine camouflage on the Horizon Varmint Elite Subalpine is optimized for stalking in various terrains. Featuring micro- and macro-patterning, this camouflage effectively deceives animal perception, providing hunters with optimal concealment when hunting close to the ground or among trees and vegetation. The Cerakote Midnight Bronze coating on the barrel and action not only enhances the aesthetic but also delivers superior corrosion resistance and ensures that surfaces remain smooth and separated. This ultra-fine ceramic coating is essential for durability in extreme environmental conditions and promises long-lasting performance in rugged landscapes.

EvolvedErgonom-X Platform for Superior Comfort

Developed using feedback from over a thousand hunters, the EvolvedErgonom-X platform prioritizes comfort and control, allowing users to maintain an optimal shooting posture. This ergonomic innovation ensures that the Horizon Varmint Elite Subalpine rifle fits the user’s hand and shooting style, making extended hunting trips more comfortable and improving overall accuracy.

Caliber Options & Specifications for Precision Shooting

This rifle is available in multiple caliber options, each with a specific twist rate to optimize bullet performance:

• .22-250 REM with a 12″ twist, ideal for varmint hunting
• .223 REM with a 9″ twist, suitable for a range of bullet weights from lighter 55-grain to heavier rounds
• .308 WIN with an 11″ twist for reliable, powerful performance

The fluted barrel profile and shifted center of gravity offer excellent weight balance, ensuring that the rifle remains both stable and maneuverable. These features, combined with fluted bolt design and three-fin locking system, offer fast, smooth cycling with a 60° bolt opening angle. The nickel-plated Dependa Bolt enhances durability and reliability, and the streamlined conical bolt handle is easy to remove for quick, routine maintenance.

Customizable Aim & Enhanced Stability

The Horizon Varmint Elite Subalpine rifle comes equipped with a muzzle brake, a medium comb, and options for low and high comb adjustments, allowing hunters to adapt the aim height based on their preferences and shooting situations. This customization ensures greater stability, providing better control and precision when sighting.

Its aggressive, sharp lines reflect the high performance it offers, making it a standout choice for both seasoned hunters and those new to varmint shooting.
