When precision, ergonomics, and value converge in a bolt-action rifle, serious hunters and precision shooters take notice. For those evaluating modern hunting rifles in powerful long-range calibers, the combination of a short bolt lift, adjustable trigger, and recoil-managing stock design can make a measurable difference in real-world performance.

FRANCHI MOMENTUM

Shop this product — the FRANCHI MOMENTUM is offered in six popular hunting calibers (from .243 Win to .300 Win Mag) and comes in multiple configurations, including rifle-only black synthetic stocks with either threaded or plain barrels, or a package option topped by a 3-9x40mm Burris scope. Its suggested price of $699 positions it as a high-value option in the Bolt Action category.

Design and Ergonomics

The stock on the FRANCHI MOMENTUM blends curvy lines with crisp checkering to deliver a consistent cheek weld and tactile purchase across five common shooting positions. Recessed swivel attachments prevent the left hand from being pushed into the stock under recoil, and the TSA recoil pad claims a 50% reduction in felt recoil while resisting snags on clothing or gear.

Action, Trigger, and Barrel Features

The bolt offers glass-smooth operation with a short 60-degree lift for rapid cycling. A single-stage trigger is user-adjustable between 2–4 lbs, allowing you to tune pull weight to personal preference and maximize the free-floating barrel’s accuracy potential. The muzzle is threaded and protected under a knurled cover to quickly accept brakes or suppressors in the field. For optics, the action accepts two-piece bases compatible with Remington Model 700 pattern bases.

Caliber: .300 Win Mag and Practical Applications

The .300 Win Mag option provides extended effective range and terminal energy for large game and open-country hunts. It’s a flat-shooting choice for hunters who need long-range performance, while the Momentum’s recoil mitigation features make follow-up shots more controllable. If you prefer lighter recoil or smaller bullets, the platform’s availability in calibers down to .243 Win gives flexible options across hunting scenarios.

Field Use and Fit

Built to serve as an extension of the shooter’s body, the FRANCHI MOMENTUM is suited for seated, prone, standing, bench, and offhand positions. The threaded-barrel option and the Burris-scoped package address both customization and out-of-the-box capability for hunters and sport shooters.
