Franchi is best known for designing affordable and reliable shotguns, and those same principles carry over to the company’s first bolt-action centerfire rifle—the Momentum. While some of its lines and contours speak to its European heritage, the design of the Momentum is purpose driven for American functionality. With its relatively light weight and fast-cycling bolt, the Franchi Momentum is a handy rifle, well-suited for use afield. Learn more about it in the video embedded above, hosted by Digital Associate Editor Rose Bier. MSRP: $609; franchiusa.com.
