Fierce Firearms CT Rage 280 Ackley Improved 24" 3+1 Bolt Action Rifle

The Fierce Firearms CT Rage in 280 Ackley Improved is a purpose-built lightweight mountain rifle engineered from Fierce's flagship Rage series, built to deliver dependable long-range accuracy without the burden of a traditional hunting rifle. Cut for the right-hand shooter and dressed for the backcountry, this is a serious big-game rifle ready to cover real country on foot.

At its heart sits the Fierce 3-Lug Triad bolt action machined from titanium, delivering the strength and corrosion resistance of a premium receiver at a fraction of the weight. The bolt feeds a 3+1 capacity in the 280 Ackley Improved chambering, a high-velocity .280 Remington-based cartridge prized for its flat trajectory, excellent retained energy, and authoritative performance on mountain game. The action is paired with a 24" C3 carbon fiber-wrapped barrel built on Fierce's proprietary C3 construction, which sheds meaningful weight and pulls heat away from the bore for repeatable down-range performance. The barrel is match grade and threaded, and is finished with a Radial Muzzle Brake to keep felt recoil flat at the muzzle.

Metalwork wears a protective Black Cerakote finish built to handle wet weather and rough handling in the field. The fixed Fierce Tech C3 stock is dressed in Blackout Camo and shaped in a classic Monte Carlo profile that seats the cheek consistently and supports off-hand shooting across varied terrain. The barreled action ships with no iron sights installed, ready to mount the optic and base of the buyer's choice. Pull weight and sear engagement are managed by an adjustable Trigger Tech Primary ProCurve trigger, paired with a positive 3-position safety for confident handling on the move. The complete rifle tips the scales at just 6.40 lbs.
