Fierce rifles?

G'day all,
Have a question about Fierce rifles. Noticed they are imported by the company I used to do repairs for.
What is the go with these rifles? Are they worth the $7,000AUD price tag?
My own customs, when I was building them, ran into $10,000AUD because that was the market price.
Would these rifles, at $3,000USD, be considered a custom or just a high end production rifle?
I am looking for something, not sure if I want to buy or build, maybe on a Borden.
Opinions welcomed.

Cheers.

No they are not worth that. Far from it.
I've had a lot of them and currently have a rival. I won't be buying another one. After I fixed the one I have now I love it but I went 4 rifles for 4 with issues so for that reason I'm done with Fierce.

Build on your Borden.

Thank you for the reply.
Our dollar is not worth anything, so prices are JACKED SKY HIGH.

Cheers.

go Seekins instead great customer service and their rifles flat shoot,I will not own another fierce

Seekins not imported here.

Cheers.

I have a Fierce Carbon Fury in 300 Win mag. Great rifle but they no longer offer that model. The newer models seem to have QC issues.
You might want to look at the Proof Research Altitude

Is there not a good rifle builder in NZ?

If we keep going in the same direction we've been heading the last 4 years, we're going to be in the same boat.

Go check out Backfire on YouTube. He has one particular Fierce that he likes.

Have you looked at Proof rifles yet? I replaced a Christensen with a Proof Elevation MTR and I'd highly recommend. Don't see many if any bad reviews on Proof rifles.

I bought one, what a mistake that was!
Their customer service is horrible. Mine wouldn't shoot, sent it back twice before they finally agreed it wasn't shooting per their guarantee.
They put a different barrel on it and sent it back.
It still didn't perform well at all so took it to my smith to check out. He bore scoped it and we found out it was reamed crooked so it would never shoot good let alone great.
I do like the rest of the rifle so will end up rebarreling it.
This gunsmith by the way builds some tack drivers and definitely knows what he is doing. I bought this rifle before I knew of this smith, his shop is about an hour from me. Needless to say I will be having him build my rifles from here out.
No more fierce anything for me, EVER!!!

Fierce CS is terrible.

Very disappointed in Fierce CS.
A buddy bought one for his Dad (Carbon Rage) in 6.5PRC. He asked me to work up a load for him.
Lapua brass. I tried 6 bullets (Berger 156 Elite, 140 Elite, 130 OTM, Sierra 140 TGK, Sierra 130 TGK, and Hammer 124 HH) , 4 powders (RL23, H1000, N565, N560), 4 primers (Fed GM210M, Fed GM215M, CCI BR2, CCI250), seating depths with all bullets, and 2 scopes. Only 1 combo shot .5 MOA, but it would not repeat. One week It would shoot a single 3-shot .3xx" group, but would not repeat.

It was sent back to Fierce at the beginning of August. They tried 8 factory ammo selections, and said "We got 1 ammo to shoot .6" one time. That meets our standards. If you want it rebarreled, you will have to pay for it." When asked if it would repeat that, they put it back into the line for retesting. No conclusion yet after 2.5 months.

Pretty pathetic for company selling a $2.5k rifle.

Heard a lot of bad things about fierce and their owner is a bit of a scumbag.
