Pierce Engineering Actions "Pics up"
- Thread starter JW Precision
- Start date
The exchange rate is always fluctuating and my company deals in USD's because the products are out of the US so to keep the price constant I feel that USD's on the actual product can keep things alot easier. Save's changing the price all the time. For the Canadian products that are coming they will be in Canadian dollars.

Here's a small write up on Pierce. Please go to my dealers area for any questions or PM, email. Thanks fellas.
John Pierce has recently introduced a new custom action that duplicates the size and footprint of the Remington 700, but with more precise tolerances. It was favorably reviewed in the April '07 edition of Precision Shooting. Designed for the hunting, tactical, and varmint markets, the Pierce Engineering action carries an introductory price of $885.00 for .223, PPC, .308, or Magnum bolt faces. The new action, is available in short, long (8.7"), and ultra-long (9") versions. (Priced at $1000, the 9" versions are special order and can be fitted with a longer 1" tenon to support long, heavy barrels.) All Pierce action are made from 4140 chrome-moly steel and come standard with a rugged CeraKote finish. Bluing and NP-3 coatings are also available (call for quote). The bolt is a precision-machined Pacific Tool unit, spiral-fluted, and customized with Pierce handle and side-mount bolt release.
John Pierce, a highly-regarded gunsmith and machinist, created his new action in response to numerous customer requests to accurize mass-produced actions. Accurizing involved many operations: recutting threads, machining bolt faces, sleeving bolts, reaming action bodies, and moving handles. John concluded it made more sense to start with a custom action made correctly from the get-go. Designed to provide benchrest accuracy for the sporting rifle, the 1.350"-diameter Pierce Action offers full drop-in compatibility with stocks inletted for the Rem 700.
Compared to a standard Rem 700 action, the Pierce action is better in many ways. First it is built from 4140 aircraft-grade chromoly steel, heat treated to 37RC. (This same steel is also used for crankshafts and connecting rods in professional race engines.) Second, the raceways are precision-cut with CNC lathe and mill machining and wire EDM. Particular attention has been given to timing opening and closing helixes for smooth operation. Third, the handle is welded in fixture, then placed in the mill for final machining of the opening helix to attain accurate positioning. Fourth, Pierce action features larger (8-40) scope mount fasteners, with precision-milled mounting threads.
All Pierce actions feature the Pierce enhanced Firing-Pin Assembly (FPA). With a faster lock time (2.3 milliseconds) and lighter strike (4.3 in/lbs), the Pierce FPA delivers easier bolt lift and reduced disruption when the pin hits the primer. Independent testing (Precision Shooting, 12/05) concluded a Pierce FPA can even shrink group size.

Tax law dictates that the applicable tax must be charged by the seller based on the province in which the customer lives:
NS HST $15%
NB HST 13%
Ontario HST 13%
NFL Lab HST 13%
BC HST 12%
Man. GST 5%
SK GST 5%
AB GST 5%
That was fun. Nice action.

JW, forgot QC, GST 5% and PEI, GST 5%. Not following this can lead to serious trouble and we don't wish to see responsible dealers up poop creek. Even Public Works was confused, as we charged GST on ON order when it was GST and we are HST in NS. Fellow raised his voice and didn't apologize when proved in error. Same chap called later looking for clarification.
Business ain't so simple, good luck!

...if they are selling from an HST province.
Vendors in HST provinces charge HST to customers in other HST provinces - at the rate in the customer's home province.
HST sucks for vendors who rely on customers outside of their home province.

Why the TAC over the round Matt?
Probably not a big deal, but I like the look of that big, flat bedding area and the integral lug.
