Coup De Grâce, New Action from American Rifle Company, $899 WOW!

How about don’t buy one if you don’t like his name that he wants. Simple. All the bitching that goes on is getting old. Can we talk about the color of the bolt knob for the 16th time next?
TiN coated for Instagram please.
 
It was interesting, at SHOT, Defiance was being slaughtered everywhere you went, and most people were coming up to me, crowing about the CDG, especially those who saw it.

I don't think the Defiance thing will turn out well, and I heard another scary rumor regarding them, but this action is getting all the press. Let's just say he wants things for his MOA rifles and barrels are next

Good on Ted with this, at $899 everyone should grab one or maybe two
 
For 900 bucks, you'd be silly to not grab one. I know I'm going to get one even though I have no idea what else to build as I have all my bases covered for hunting and match use.

Fun gun. FAFO gun. ELR gun. The possibilities are endless.

The best deal i've seen in quite some time. Ted is going to sell a mtric fuck ton of these. I know looks don't translate to performance, but with prices going up, the flutes will definitely draw in the crowd that loves the flutes on the defiance, lone peak, impact, etc.

Patience is always the name of the game on a product launch. I got Archimedes serial #4, the CDG will be worth the wait.
Yeah, I’ve resigned myself to the possibility. I have other guns and hardly have time to shoot anyway 😄. Also a little nervous about buying a 1st gen product, but as someone said above they’ve been doing this a while. And damn… what other custom action of any flavor at all can you find under a grand anyway?
 
i would like #69 please
I’d be cool with either #13 or #420 as well

Edit: I’ll actually be totally fine with any number RH, long action.

So what's everyone planning to build with this action?

I'm thinking a 6mm prs build for myself.

Yes











I plan on purchasing mine with .473 & .588 bolt heads(my father has a 700 in 7RM so that’s already in the family). I’d like the first 2 barrels to be in 260 Rem and 300 Norma. The sky is really the limit after that.

Lol, I don’t have anything resembling a plan yet. But I’ll figure it out and it will include a .30-06 barrel

I'm really considering swapping this in for the gen 1 nucleus I have built up for my NRL Hunter 6.5CM build. I haven't done any load development and this looks like like a sweeter deal. Can honestly flip for gen 1 nuke for close to this to a buddy

If you sell your Gen1 Nuke to a buddy for close to this price instead of telling him about the CDG sale price... you aint much of a buddy.
 
$80-90 for each bolt head must be a miscommunication.. I was thinking like $150-175 which would be inline with the rest of theirs! Definitely building a 223 (maybe AI), and a 300WM. May do a 37XC down the road

Thinking of building a target gun for my brother's 40th bday. Looking at this in a red JAE G4, bartlien 24" .308, and a ZCO on top. His birthday is two years off so I probably should wait. 😁 maybe I'll get one for myself for a .223 since I don't have a bolt action .223 yet.

You could get it for his bday then thoroughly test it to make sure everything works for 2 yrs then give it to him lol
 
Count me in for 3 please. One for me, one for the wife and one for my brother. Now i need 3 chassis. By the way we love the M-Brace, have 6 of them!

Do it! 33 and 37xc dominate the lower weight classes in ELR

I'm interested to know if these will handle the 33 and 37xc as well.
The option to do a Lapua/XC (plus all the smaller rounds) is the main reason I’m getting this action. When I emailed about potentially chambering it in one, they didn’t tell specifically tell me it wouldn’t.. and I’ve read of a few people building them on factory 700s as it is. It might pressure out sooner than other beefier actions though from what I’ve read on similarly threaded actions in these cartridges. Time will tell I suppose!
