Beretta Rifles
Beretta’s rifle lineup is less widely known than its handguns and shotguns, but the brand fields a genuinely diverse range of centerfire rifles through its own platforms and its ownership of Tikka—Finland’s premier bolt-action manufacturer. The CX4 Storm is a pistol-caliber carbine sharing magazines with the PX4 pistol. The ARX100 is Beretta’s piston-driven semi-automatic in 5.56, designed to the same military standards as the ARX160 issued to Italian armed forces. The BRX1 straight-pull bolt-action brings a distinctly European approach to precision shooting. And through Tikka, Beretta’s parent Beretta Holding offers some of the most accurate factory bolt-action rifles available at any price point. For the shooter who wants Italian-engineering quality across the entire firearms spectrum, Beretta’s rifle family delivers.

Beretta CX4 Storm: The PCC That Matches Your Pistol
The CX4 Storm is a pistol-caliber carbine in 9mm that accepts Beretta PX4 magazines—a genuine advantage for PX4 pistol owners who want a carbine that shares their ammunition and magazine supply. The CX4 runs a 16.6-inch barrel in a compact polymer-stocked package with a rotating bolt lockup for reliable feeding. Its modular design accommodates left- or right-hand ejection and accepts a broad range of aftermarket furniture and optic mounts. While the PCC market has grown significantly with Kel-Tec Sub-2000, Ruger PC Carbine, and CMMG Banshee alternatives, the CX4 remains the natural pairing for PX4 pistol owners and offers a distinctly Italian aesthetic compared to most American PCCs.
Beretta ARX100: Military-Grade Piston Rifle
The ARX100 is the civilian semi-automatic version of the ARX160—the current service rifle of the Italian Armed Forces. It uses a short-stroke gas piston system, a fully ambidextrous control layout, a folding polymer stock, and a modular design that allows barrel swaps without tools. The ARX100 in 5.56x45mm accepts standard STANAG AR-15/M16 magazines and offers a genuine piston alternative to the DI AR-15 with military pedigree to back its reliability claims. The ARX160 chambered in .22 LR is also produced as a training and range variant. For shooters who want a piston-driven 5.56 with Beretta’s service contract quality and a significantly different platform than the AR-15, the ARX100 is the most distinctive option in the American rifle market.
Beretta BRX1: The European Straight-Pull Approach
The BRX1 is Beretta’s straight-pull bolt-action rifle—a design popular in European hunting markets where semi-automatic rifles face heavier legal restrictions. A straight-pull action allows the shooter to cycle the bolt with a linear pull-and-push motion rather than the lift-turn-pull-push sequence of a traditional bolt gun, enabling faster follow-up shots without breaking cheek weld. The BRX1 is available in a wide range of calibers from .243 Winchester through .300 Winchester Magnum and uses a cold hammer-forged barrel, a fully adjustable stock, and a detachable box magazine. For American hunters who want something distinctly different from the standard bolt-action market, the BRX1 offers European engineering with genuine performance credentials.
Tikka: Beretta’s Bolt-Action Division
Tikka is owned by Beretta Holding—the same corporate family as Beretta, Sako, and Stoeger—and produces some of the most sub-MOA factory bolt-action rifles available at any price. The Tikka T3x is the benchmark affordable precision bolt-action: a cold hammer-forged barrel, a smooth synthetic or walnut stock, and a trigger that typically breaks between 2 and 3 pounds with minimal creep from the factory. Available in calibers from .223 Remington through .300 Winchester Magnum, the T3x is a natural choice for hunters who want genuine long-range accuracy without custom work. The T3x Compact Tactical Rifle (CTR) extends the platform into precision rifle competition. For hunters and long-range shooters who want sub-MOA performance under $1,000, Tikka is where the Beretta family’s reputation for precision most clearly shows.
