I had one and it was too rough. I lost $$$ on it.

I even drove out there and toured the place. Best part of the trip was meeting Rod at Serrengeti Rifles. If he did it it would be ok.

I have a M1999 and a barrel bored .423 from them and like it a lot.....but as Jeffe said deliveries are sketchy.

Further reports of quality are also inconsistant

I think they're trying to make an $850 action for $450 and the compression is cutting supply lines...

I sold one here via classifieds for $10 over wholesale and with shipping lost a couple bucks.....big deal!! It took several weeks on the clasifieds to sell it however so I believe the market isn't really that hot for them

Here's a post that was active yesterday on the same subject: https://forums.accuratereloading.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/9411043/m/571104185

Run a search on "Montana Rifle Company", MRC, and "Montana Rifle Co" and you can spend a day reading about them.

Thank you Vapodog I like the action you sold me It did needs some work but hay great starting point and elbow grease never hurt anyone but the week of mind or lazy.Yea it needs polishing but thats what long winter nites are for. I am making a 375 Hawk the barrel is being made now buy Benchmark Barrels. But I like the action. stir
