Special Notes: Pierce Engineering has donated a custom action (long action repeater) for this evening’s auction. The heart of any rifle is the action. Pierce actions are used worldwide for hunting, competition, and law enforcement. Pierce
actions and rifles have been having great success at the national level in
F-Class competition. Use this as the start for your own custom build. Designed to provide bench rest accuracy, the 1.350”-diameter Pierce Action has a drop-in compatibility with stocks inletted for the Remington 700. Tactical bolt handles are available. Designed for the hunting, tactical, and varmint markets, the Pierce action starts with a base price of $935. Pierce actions are made from 4140 chrome-moly steel (This same steel is also used for crankshafts and connecting rods in professional race engines.) and comes standard with Cerakote finish. All Pierce actions feature the Pierce enhanced Firing-Pin Assembly (FPA). With a faster lock time (2.3 milliseconds) and lighter strike (4.3 in/lbs), the Pierce FPA delivers easier bolt lift and reduced disruption when the pin hits the primer. Independent testing (Precision Shooting, 12/05) concluded a Pierce FPA can even shrink group size. A Pierce recoil lug is also included in every Pierce action
purchase. John is now offering titanium actions and the winning bidder may
upgrade to titanium for an additional $350. The winning bidder needs to make arrangements with John to pick up action or build a rifle.
