Ultimatum U300

[Ryan.M.Anderson]

Not sure if anyone has seen this before (and I have no affiliation with the company) but it looks like there is a new Canadian action manufacturer kicking around.

ultimatumprecision.com

IMO, it kind of looks like a Deviant action had a baby with a M2013 action.

 

[Aprilia Man]

Yup .... based in Abbotsford BC.

Looks like their new action has some potential. Had some info passed on to me by them and it's their first gen action. Now if they can make one in SS. Hmmmmm

Looks good, would like to handle one though.

I can fully get behind local but they currently have a very small selection.

Gotta start somewhere.

So it's remington clone, right ? So any Remington stock should fit.

 

[Wildey]

I like it. Looks beefy, and it's cool to see Canadian craftsmanship.

Has my interest

"Remington 700 Footprint
The action is created with a Remington 700 footprint in order to be compatible with many stocks and chassis."

I read that as a yes.

This action certainly looks interesting and its nice to buy Canadian.

I think it looks awesome.

One thing that seems weird to me is why they went with Remington pattern threads when they designed it to be used with a barrel nut. I think it would have been smarter to go with Savage threads for all the pre-fits out there just like ARC did with the mausingfield.

It makes more sense to me to go with the Remington footprint. I would say at least 90% of aftermarket actions are based of it. Tons of options out there for custom parts.

If this is in response to my comment, I totally agree the footprint should be Remington, I just wish the thread pitch for the barrels was the same as Savage

I agree 100% there is no reason to do 16 tpi. With the exception of a few remage offerings. If you're having a shouldered barrel put on, thread pitch pretty much doesn't matter so it might as well be 20 tpi so that people can thread pre fit barrels on with a barrel nut. I realize there are remage offerings but they are fewer and further between.

The idea of a floating bolt head is interesting. Has anyone ever heard of this in other offerings? Does it work as advertised?

 

[warrenb]

Savage actions use a floating bolt head. The rem 783 also.

Savage actions use a floating bolt head. The rem 783 also.

As well as Bighorn and Mausingfield actions which are considered to be some of the best out there. I should also add that they both use Savage barrel threads!

 

[Mystic Precision]

Prefits on Rem threads have been available for some time

Interesting looking product...I like floating bolt heads and they are already geared to make spares...

What manufacturers of Remington pre-fits can you get a hold of Jerry? The only one I know of is McGowan, are there others out there?

 

[Mystic Precision]

McGowen makes them. All I need to know

[blueoval56]

I've heard McGowen's quality has really gone up in recent years. If you say they're good to go then that's enough for me.
