Defiance Tenacity

Purchase an action from Jim Borden & do not look back.

Phoenix/Defiance does NOT design,G.Harrison just copies w/o regard to patent/copyrights.

Yikes :eek:

Sometimes it's more expensive to try to do things cheaply. The amount of time and money that some of my friends have had to spend in order to fix problems caused by going with a cheaper product or gunsmith is astounding.

You usually get what you pay for...

Was nothing done cheap here.
This was a complete custom gun built by corlanes.
Stiller action, kreiger barrel, etc. This was a gun I bought off here complete
The issue is the work was complete crap. Like I said from the red loctite to hold the barrel on to the rest of the crap.
If there is a measurement and you can’t make it that. Don’t do the job.
That’s the reason I do my own work.
There are very few people I will trust doing things for me.
Was to much poor work done. And most people have no idea

I guess I was making the assumption that that specific gunsmith is cheaper then others.

I know plenty of people that have been burned by "bargain" gunsmiths, especially in Canada.

Perhaps that's an incorrect assumption, I know nothing about that outfit.

Anyways, that's a really poor outcome, and completely unacceptable. I'm surprised Defiance is not helping at all.

1:10 is an excellent all around twist rate for .308.

Both of those barrel manufacturers are top notch, not a bad decision to be made between those two.

Have you tried shooting 178 and lighter bullets on a 1:10, any issues? Thanks

my experience jn a nutshell... purchased a DEFIANCE action... through Corlane Sports that I didn't see or use till the build was completed... upon receiving IT.... IT had a grindy noise at the bridge area... I was caught in the middle as the neither DEFIANCE OR CORLANE would take responsibility.
DEFIANCE claimed that the action must have been altered during the build process.
It was a sad, depressing and disappointing experience.

SO ?? The Corlane gunsmith's were unable to NOTICE the problem before turning over the project to you ?? Hmm Something wrong here ? RJ
 
ordered the Krieger MTU/ Varmint 30" 1:10 twist 5R , it says 6.0 lbs total weight , planning of having it shorten to 24-26". hope I made a good decision. making the specs for a rifle is harder than getting a girlfriend, lol.

Don't worry too much. The more barrels you have the better. Atleast that's what I tell myself
