The Vandal X stands tall as Horizon Firearms' iconic flagship, crowned Backfire TV's most accurate factory rifle of 2026. It pairs a premium steel barrel in the Horizon Varmint #4.5 contour with Horizon's signature 3-flute, 2-twist fluting, all anchored in the carbon Iota EKO X stock, to deliver accuracy that has to be shot to be believed.
Built on the Stiller Hyrax action with a TriggerTech trigger and a factory 20 MOA rail, the Vandal X is the ultimate precision hunting platform. Its Platinum barrel and action finish and Sagebrush textured stock look the part, and every rifle is built to Horizon's 0.5 MOA standard with factory ammunition, ready to redefine your long-range game in 22 Creedmoor, 25 Creedmoor, 6.5 Creedmoor or .308 Win.
