Lightweight actions ???

[Buzzsaw]

I've found the Defiance but do any other custom action makers make a dedicated LW action??

There are several titanium actions available. I have a Pierce titanium and love it. They will also make you an action with a scallop cut in the side which will make it almost as light as the titanium. I just received mine and it is within an ounce or two. The Defiance has the rail built in, which may or may not be a deciding factor for you. The Pierce will be cheaper and faster to get.

Thanks I will check Pierce out. I have heard good things about their rifles, They use a Sako clone, correct?

 

[FURMAN]

You are thinking of Fierce. Pierce are Remington clones.

My bad, Fierce Firearms is the Sako Clone.

I just looked at the Pierce TI action, could just be what I'm looking for. The Defiance does have the rail but on the lightweight its just the bases not a "full" rail.

They are quoting a 3 month wait, not bad, I'm planning on 4-5 cuz of the stock and this contour custom barrel

Manners or Mcmillan will most likely take longer than the action. Last time I spoke with Defiance they quoted me quit a bit longer than 90 days. My Pierce took right at 90 days. I am still waiting on my second EH1.

+1 on a Pierce Ti action. Add the nitride coated Ti bolt option.
My long action tips the scale at just under 16 oz.
Great people at Pierce also. Ask for Jim.

Lone peak Arms in Ut. makes a nice TI action called the Razor TI
