The Horizon Firearms Vandal 2 is a refined return to the spirit of the original Horizon Vandal, now built on a brand-new stock tailored for traditional hunters who want elevated components and performance. A classic sporter grip and traditional hunter colourways give it the feel Horizon owners know and trust, while an integrated ARCA rail adds modern capability for stable bipod and tripod shooting.
Underneath, the Vandal 2 is pure Horizon: a premium steel barrel in the Horizon Varmint #4.5 contour with skip-dash fluting, Stiller's newest Hyrax action, a TriggerTech trigger and an Iota Outdoors SIM muzzle brake on a 5/8-24 thread. Every Horizon rifle is built to a 0.5 MOA standard with factory ammunition, making the Vandal 2 a dependable all-round hunting rifle for deer, pigs and goats at real-world ranges.
