ADVANCED PRIMARY EXTRACTION
Primary extraction is an extremely underdeveloped but crucial stage of cycling your firearm. Primary extraction is one of the major causes of rifle malfunctions yet the design has not changed significantly in a century. In a conventional bolt action rifle, the primary extraction is conducted in approximately the last 5 degrees of bolt lift. This creates considerable shock loading on your extractor and brass to the point where the extractor can let go and drop the rifle cartridge.
Project X uses an advanced primary extraction system wherein primary extraction is achieved throughout the entire 90 degrees of bolt lift. This spreads the load over a range 18x greater than conventional design in turn reducing the stress on the fired brass and your extractor while increasing reliability.
WEIGHT CONSCIOUS DESIGN
PROJECT X is not only a blend of features but also of materials. We are able to optimize the weight of each component based on it's application with materials such as:
4140 alloy steel
Chrome silicon
7075 T6 aluminum
Carbon fiber composites
This has given us the ability to optimize each portion of the action and as a result, we are able to construct the heart of your rifle considerably lighter, stronger, and with far greater optimized features.

RECOIL REDUCTION
The fully tunable directional muzzle brake is produced from 400 grade stainless steel. The Hardy muzzle brake is a world leader in recoil reduction and muzzle control. Then we take it to the next level by giving you the opportunity to tune the muzzle brakes' position to best suit your load. Simple in concept, exacting in design, optimal in performance.
STABILITY
Comprehensive studies have highlighted the benefits surrounding the “triangle of stability” when applied to bipods within the shooting industry. This data has led to a number of new bipods on the market with wider stances, ensuring that your barrel sits inside the triangle created when fitting a bipod, rather than on the peak. The increased rigidity and stability of this style of bipod makes for a considerable advantage when making the long shots really count.
This being said, none do it better than the Hybrid Bipod designed by Hardy Rifle. The Hybrid Bipod takes full advantage of the “triangle of stability” and maximises the performance with features such as:
-
Carbon fiber legs for additional rigidity
-
Picatinny mounting to handle heavier recoil and pre-load
-
Large ball joint locking mechanism for versatility and stability
-
A mixture of brass and stainless-steel fittings for the ultimate in durability
-
Increased cant for flexibility no matter what the terrain.
