AR builds and range guns make up much of what we ship, but many customers also hunt, and many have a young or smaller-framed family member who needs a real hunting rifle. The Fierce Mini Rogue family fills that gap with a light carbon bolt-action. It suits whitetail in Southern hardwoods, mule deer on Western ridges, hogs in Texas brush and pronghorn on the plains.

Fierce uses carbon fiber stocks, a shorter length of pull and an adjustable comb or push-button cheek piece. The dual-lug action is stainless steel, or titanium on the CT models, and the CT Mini Rogue XP weighs about six pounds. Choose 22, 25, 6mm or 6.5 Creedmoor, 6.5 PRC, 308 Winchester or 7mm-08 Remington to match the game you hunt.

7mm Remington Magnum is a long-reaching big-game magnum for elk, moose and open-country deer; expect noticeably more recoil than the short-action rounds. Be honest with yourself about recoil: a magnum in a light rifle kicks. It is a rifle for experienced adult hunters, not a first rifle.

The Carbon Rogue is built for adult shooters who want a light magnum: C3 carbon barrel, stainless two-lug action, spiral-fluted bolt and an adjustable Bix'n Andy Dakota trigger.

This rifle has a 22 in threaded barrel, 3+1 capacity, and weighs about 5.8 lb. Finish: Sonora Ambush Camo.

AR shooters know an adjustable stock fixes a lot, and bolt rifles are no different. On the Mini Rogue, the short length of pull and adjustable comb do that job. Make sure the shooter can reach the trigger with the elbow down, then set the comb so the eye is centered behind the glass. Start new hunters on 6mm or 6.5 Creedmoor before a 308.

Name any licensed dealer in your state at checkout and the rifle goes to them for the background check. Your dealer completes the transfer under your own state's rules, so ask them about any local steps. Stock and price are re-checked against the distributor the moment you order, before anything is taken.

Questions buyers ask: Which Mini Rogue caliber should I choose for deer and hogs? 6.5 Creedmoor or 7mm-08 Remington work well for deer and hogs across most of the country with moderate recoil. Can I ship a rifle to my own local dealer? Yes. Name any licensed dealer in your state at checkout and the rifle ships to them for the background check. What caliber is this Fierce rifle? 7mm Remington Magnum, 3+1 capacity.
