No other rifle combines the precision of the Defiance Action, Proof Research carbon fiber barrel, and our proprietary Rifleman stock design in a lightweight carbon fiber shell.
The Defiance action features a one-piece bolt construction with deep spiral flutes and very open “Sheep Hunter” loading and ejection port. The port design reduces action weight and makes it very easy to load cartridges into the rifle, even in gloved hands.
Our Rifleman stock features the best blend of grip shape, comb height, and forearm dimensions of any long range hunting stock on the market and is exclusive to HCR.
Every rifle in our full custom series is individually aluminum pillar and glass bedded. This produces action bedding that is an exact, one-to-one match to your specific stock and action. This is why every one of these rifles is guaranteed to shoot sub-½” groups at 100 yards with factory hunting ammunition.
Our Pathfinder Series combines our 28 years of rifle building expertise with the latest technology in action, barrel, and stock design to produce a highly accurate, lightweight, and versatile mini-chassis build.
3-Shot Group at 100 yards with Factory Ammunition. We shoot every rifle in our underground range to test and verify proper feeding, extraction, ejection and accuracy. You will receive the final targets and ammunition data.
The Manners-PH stock features an integral, snag-free ARCA and Bipod rail design, in a strong, lightweight, carbon fiber construction with a perfectly machined mini-chassis system.
Now with Custom HCR Stock Paint in our Mirage or Web Patterns! This gives the Pathfinder Rifle even more of a Custom Rifle look and feel!
We recognize that not everyone is ready to spend what our full custom rifles cost. We strive to cater to as many hunters as possible. Our Harvester rifles, provides a very accurate, high-quality, lightweight rifle, at a price aimed at maximizing value.
The Tikka T3 gives us a lightweight platform with a detachable box magazine and a short, quick 60-degree bolt throw, Sako extractor and adjustable trigger. We have been very pleased with the machining quality of the barrels and chambers and are confident we can guarantee a sub-inch grouping rifle at 100 yards with factory ammunition.
In addition to perfectly bedding the action, we recrown the barrel to ensure a perfectly concentric crown. The factory Tikka stock is replaced with a McMillan hand-laid fiberglass stock with 1” Pachmayr Decelerator recoil pad. Then we apply our rust-proof Cerakote finish to the metal to give you a fantastic custom look in an extremely accurate, reliable, lightweight hunting rifle at a great price.
I just wanted to give you and your whole team there at Hill Country Rifles kudos on a job well done. You built me a custom 308 win match several months ago and I couldn't be happier. My girlfriend recently shot her first deer with it and loves shooting the rifle. I soon after shot a mule deer in west Texas at 507 yards which is my furthest yet. The rifle consistently shoots .25 moa at 100 yards if I do my part. Anyways just wanted to let y'all know I couldn't be happier. Thanks again.
Hunted with the 35 whelen you built for me and it shoots amazingly well. Put 3 rounds of DT 200 gr ttsx inside a quarter at 100. Just another testament.
The rifle that you made for me a couple of years ago, is an absolute tack driver, half inch MOA @ 200 yards, and has done very well in Africa. I would certainly not hesitate to have another built by you all.
I received my rifle and was able to shoot it over the weekend. I am impressed. The build came out exactly how I hoped it would. I appreciate you taking the time to help me decide what was best for what I needed. I was able to shoot a 1/2 inch group with my first three shots. Dialed the turrets to 300 and hit my steel plate 6 out of 6 times.
