Originating in the USA for pest-hunting, the varminting rifle now has several possible variations, extending beyond the realms of hunting.  The new Franchi Horizon Varmints are a perfect long-range gun with excellent ballistic accuracy.  With a fluted profile and barrels, the gravity is shifted back to the centre, providing excellent weight balance, creating stability and manageability while giving it a modern styling.

HORIZON VARMINT CAMO CERAKOTE

Versatile and effective, the perfect choice to experience the intensity of hunting emotions

The Optifade camouflage created specifically for hunting, has been designed with micro- and macro- patterning, allowing the hunter to be camouflaged whether stalking along the ground or under the cover of trees and vegetation. The Cerakote coating on barrel and action, is done in Midnight Bronze and chromatically matched to the camouflage patterning.  An ultra-fine ceramic coating further improves corrosion resistance making the Varmint Camo Cerakote the perfect hunting companion, even in extreme environments.
