I called the Montana Rifle Company today and asked what the status of the PH actions are. The guy on the phone (Shane?) said they were going to start producing them in March. They are going to fill orders based on who's been on the waiting list the longest.
This is great news for anyone that has been waiting for these to go into production.
I was thinking about calling Richards Microfit to see if they will produce a semi inlet stock for the PH. Does anyone know of another stock option?
Don't get too excited, I wouldn't buy a stock until you actually see an action. They've had my money for years. Call them back in March and I bet they tell you mid summer. And so on and so on. I don't expect to ever see one.

I don't expect to see them in March because producing a new product never goes like it was planned. We've already had several delays on the PH. But I'm confidant at this point that MRC will get them out the door.

From your lips to Gods ears, tigger. The client I ordered this for has since built a rifle on a Granite Mountain action. I would however still like to have one. It's just that after 6 years of promises and delays I'm just not feeling it anymore

I've been on the list for years and have never even been asked for money. Last I heard from MRC they said they were going to contact me when they were ready for my cash.

Recoil Rob, perhaps you are no longer on the list. The ones on "the list" paid for the actions long ago. I would be calling if you still want to be "on the list"...if its not too late already.

Yeah, I'm going to have to call them on Monday and see what's up. I kept all the emails with pricing and such, as I remember they were $550 introductory price, they're a lot more now.

You are right about $550 when they first started talking about the action. Then they shut it down and said it was off indefinitely, then back on a year later. $625 was the final charter price.

Ryan Breeding had serial #1 at the SCI show in Reno last week. I had it in my hot little hands. What a massive action! If you can't fit it in this it shouldn't be shoulder fired!

what SWD said plus 1! The pictures posted by Boomie were taken by me on Friday. Dang, that's one gorgeous chunk of steel. I got two on the serious $625 apiece order, and have a line on two more at that price. Guy got tired of waiting... Bad news for him, great for me.
