My Favorite New Factory Rifles of 2025

Share This:

1) CVA Cascade SoftTouch Veil Wideland Bolt Motion Rifle – 204 Ruger – 20in. Throughout final spring’s varmint season, this rifle was the jewel of the brand new rifles we have been utilizing this previous yr. A bunch of us shot it and all had the identical ideas. Correct, nice match, seems to be nice and simple to suppress. It carried out VERY properly.

2) Howa 1500 Tremendous Deluxe Mini-Motion in .22 ARC. In addition to being a ravishing rifle, this little Howa actually did properly on the vary and within the area. I took a whole lot of varmints with it this yr, together with rockchucks, prairie canines and floor squirrels. Farthest shot was 427 yards on a rockchuck.

3) Winchester XPert 17WSM. This rimfire rifle shocked the heck out of me. At first, it didn’t shoot properly. After passing the 100 spherical mark, the teams shrank and MOA outcomes have been the usual. I took it out to Wyoming for Prairie Canine and it carried out very properly. Even on longer pictures. The 17WSM cartridge is certainly NOT lifeless. Particularly with these new, reasonably priced rifles, now being out there.

These are my favourite new manufacturing facility rifles for 2025. There shall be full evaluations, with movies for every rifle, coming quickly!
