I really can't explain why I wanted a defiance... I have followed them for years and I really like all the ability to make it EXACTLY what I wanted. They even cut it for the Seekins DBM. My shooting ability doesn't even warrant a custom action but hey, It's probably the only one I will ever own.
Awesome builds everyone! I really like the spiral fluting on your rifle bjay! I've been contemplating having my barrel spiral fluted but wasn't sure. I guess I have plenty of time now. I guess I could list the parts I have so far.
Barrel is a Bartlain from Grizzly. It's a 5r 308 with 1-10"...
Beautiful rifle! your not helping though lol. Curious what did you coat the bolt in?? I spoke with defiance on cerakoting it and they were kinda apprehensive due to the close tolerences. Looks like your bolt is coated in something different than the rest of the rifle.
I don't think I could handle over a year lol. This is my first custom and it killing me! Bugholes has an action and it is almost PERFECT! Almost... It is even cut for my seeking DBM but it's not the same bolt flute depth or handle and its a a recessed bolt nose instead of flat... Now I know what...
NevadaZielmeister just curious what the finish is on your bolt? It's hard to tell in the picture if it is unfinished or coated. I've been trying to decide if I want to have the bolt of the Deviant i ordered cerakoted black to match the rifle or not. I really don't wanna mess with the smooth feel...
Just curious what custom specs did you order? I saw today on their facebook page they are releasing a Deviant Hunter action. Lightened up and made for easier top loading for BDL style rifles. Looked interesting
I'm gonna wait for sure. Communication has been great with defiance. It will be 7 months from order to delivery but it'll make it that much more exciting opening that box when it arrives!

Thank you for letting me know about the Stiller but I've wanted a Defiance action for over three years. Just drawn to them for some reason

Yeah i ordered a manners stock with an estimated delivery of 18 weeks and like you said, I'm getting exactly what I wanted. I was hoping to have the metal work done by the time the stock arrived. Looks like I'll be playing with the stock a while :-)

Well I think I can count out taking the 300rum I'm trying to build antelope hunting this year like I hoped. Found out today the Defiance Deviant action I ordered in November most likely won't be in my hands until the end of JUNE!! Everything I read recently said they were running around 90 days...
I read through the instructions and it appears the Zero stop may actually be a STOP.. Seems easy to set as well. I really gotta get my hands on this thing. I would really like to see an in depth review video from SHOT.
I've been on a lot of shooting forums and all of them have those that just wanna argue for the sake of an argument. Some of you need to eat a snickers because your diva is showing DAMN lol.

I'm stoked about the 5-25x50! I was planning on the vortex viper pst but I have always been a huge Burris fan. Has everything I wanted. I run a 6-24 signature select scope on my STW and it's been a great scope. Really excited to compare them to the Vortex line!
I have a Liberty fatboy safe and it's been great! You can get real good deals on these safes if you shop around. I got the dial as well because I didn't trust the electronic lock.
