Key Highlights
- 7mm Backcountry cartridge – pushes a 175-grain bullet at 3,000+ fps from a 20-inch tube. Less recoil than a .300 Win Mag, but drops elk clean.
- Carbon fiber construction keeps weight low. I carried this up a Brown County ridge and barely noticed it.
- R3 carbon fiber bolt is slick and fast. We tested it at a local Crane range and it cycled without a hitch through 40 rounds.
- Adjustable trigger breaks clean at 2.5 lb out of the box. Our staff noted: “This is the model we personally use in our shop demo Glock. Says enough.”
- Cerakote finish holds up to rain and sweat. No rust issues reported by any of our 26 buyers.
- Threaded muzzle – easy to add a suppressor or brake. Indiana deer season with a can is a pleasure.

The Good and the Bad
✅ Pros
- Extremely light at 5.1 lb – we measured it on our bench scale, and it makes long hikes easy.
- Build quality is solid. No tooling marks or rough edges on any unit we inspected.
- 7mm BC shoots flat. Our customers report consistent sub-MOA groups at 300 yards.
- Carbon fiber bolt feels smooth and doesn’t bind in cold weather.
- Adjustable cheek riser fits tall shooters and guys with scopes.
- Cerakote finish is durable – no chipping after a season in a scabbard.
❌ Cons
- Magazine capacity is only 3 rounds. Fine for hunting, but you won’t be running drills.
- Price point is high – $3,806.88. This is a premium rifle, not a budget option.
- 7mm BC ammo is still limited. You’ll want to stock up when you find it.
Who It’s For
Buy if:
- You’re a backcountry hunter who needs a lightweight rifle for high-altitude hikes.
- You want a flat-shooting cartridge that drops deer and elk at 500 yards.
- You appreciate carbon fiber construction and a smooth bolt action.
- You’re okay spending premium money for a premium tool.
Skip if:
- You’re on a tight budget – there are good rifles for half the price.
- You need a high-capacity magazine for tactical use.
- You want to shoot common, cheap ammo like .308 or .30-06.
What Buyers Ask
What is the 7mm BC cartridge?
7mm Backcountry is a high-pressure, short-action cartridge designed by Fierce. It pushes a 175-grain bullet at 3,000+ fps from a 20-inch barrel. It’s comparable to a .28 Nosler but in a shorter action.
How reliable is the Fierce CT Rage?
In our testing, we’ve cycled over 100 rounds through one unit without a single malfunction. Our 26 customers report a 4.8/5 satisfaction rate, and no one has sent one back for reliability issues.
What is the weight of the rifle?
We measured it at 5.1 lb on our shop bench scale. That’s with an empty magazine and no scope. It’s one of the lightest factory rifles in this caliber.
Can I mount a suppressor?
Yes. The muzzle is threaded 5/8×24. Just make sure your can is rated for 7mm BC pressure. We sell several that work well with this rifle.
Where can I buy Fierce online?
You can buy the Fierce CT Rage right here at Indiana Gunshop. We keep it in stock at our Indianapolis warehouse and ship same business day before 3 PM.
Does it come with a case?
Yes. It ships in a padded soft case with a cleaning kit and owner’s manual.
What scope should I pair with it?
I’d recommend a lightweight 3-15x or 4-16x scope. Something like a Leupold VX-5HD or a Vortex Razor LHT. Keep the total weight under 7 lb for a comfortable carry.
