The Horizon Firearms Venatic 2 (brand part no. HRF-VE2-280A-22R) is a precision hunting rifle chambered in .280 Ackley Improved, built around the ultra-smooth, hyper-polished Stiller Wombat action. Horizon Firearms fits a 22-inch premium steel barrel with a 4-flute, 2-twist spiral pattern, finished in Sage Green and threaded at the muzzle, over a black DLC receiver wearing a Picatinny rail. The iota EKO X carbon fiber stock in Arctic Moss pairs an ARCA rail forend with the Picatinny mount combo, and a flush-mount magazine keeps the profile clean for field carry. Among bolt action rifles, the Venatic 2 favors serious hunters who want custom-shop accuracy in a fast-handling mountain build.
