Coup De Grâce, New Action from American Rifle Company, $899 WOW!

There it is! Adding much needed value to this thread
It was interesting, at SHOT, Defiance was being slaughtered everywhere you went, and most people were coming up to me, crowing about the CDG, especially those who saw it.
I don't think the Defiance thing will turn out well, and I heard another scary rumor regarding them, but this action is getting all the press. Let's just say he wants things for his MOA rifles and barrels are next
Good on Ted with this, at $899 everyone should grab one or maybe two

For 900 bucks, you'd be silly to not grab one. I know I'm going to get one even though I have no idea what else to build as I have all my bases covered for hunting and match use.
The best deal i've seen in quite some time. Ted is going to sell a mtric fuck ton of these. I know looks don't translate to performance, but with prices going up, the flutes will definitely draw in the crowd that loves the flutes on the defiance, lone peak, impact, etc.
Yes, all available options are listed at the pre-sale price on the site.
I must say I’m nervous that this turns into a multi month backorder situation… I’m not online often enough to get in on this in the first few hours of the release.
Patience is always the name of the game on a product launch. I got Archimedes serial #4, the CDG will be worth the wait.
Yeah, I’ve resigned myself to the possibility. I have other guns and hardly have time to shoot anyway
. Also a little nervous about buying a 1st gen product, but as someone said above they’ve been doing this a while. And damn… what other custom action of any flavor at all can you find under a grand anyway?I’d be cool with either #13 or #420 as well
Edit: I’ll actually be totally fine with any number RH, long action.

That would be awesome, i was in the same boat. Im going to pair it with the MDT ACC Elite and try out the AW magazines.
223 or 223 AI slinging 88 eldms for prs. If I fall in love I will build another in 6 dasher
Yes
I plan on purchasing mine with .473 & .588 bolt heads(my father has a 700 in 7RM so that’s already in the family). I’d like the first 2 barrels to be in 260 Rem and 300 Norma. The sky is really the limit after that.
Going to build a modern precision 30-06
I’ll have an ‘ol gray beard barrel as well, throated a bit long to maximize its potential
CDG action
26" 1:7 twist, proof competition contour, chambered in 6 GT, with PVA jet4 brake
Trigger tech special
Krg bravo with ARCA enclosed forend
MDT GRND POD
ARC mbrace rings
Leupold mk5hd 5-25
I’m using the Serengeti reamer, got a whole bunch of 208’s that need somewhere to go.
The rest will be:
CDG long action
26” Hardy Carbon barrel, 1.25” straight taper 1:9 twist with a Heathen G2 5 port brake
Trigger tech special 2-stage
MDT XRS with enclosed forend
March 4.5-28x52 with ARC M10 QD-L mount
This is my first PRS build that i 100% own(built a dasher with a friend back in 2016), so i'm going buy once cry once!
Lol, I don’t have anything resembling a plan yet. But I’ll figure it out and it will include a .30-06 barrel
I'm looking at building an elk rifle and elr type rifle. One barrel in 7mm-300prc and the other in 338nm
I'm really considering swapping this in for the gen 1 nucleus I have built up for my NRL Hunter 6.5CM build. I haven't done any load development and this looks like like a sweeter deal. Can honestly flip for gen 1 nuke for close to this to a buddy
If you sell your Gen1 Nuke to a buddy for close to this price instead of telling him about the CDG sale price... you aint much of a buddy.
$80-90 for each bolt head must be a miscommunication.. I was thinking like $150-175 which would be inline with the rest of theirs! Definitely building a 223 (maybe AI), and a 300WM. May do a 37XC down the road
Thinking of building a target gun for my brother's 40th bday. Looking at this in a red JAE G4, bartlien 24" .308, and a ZCO on top. His birthday is two years off so I probably should wait. 
maybe I'll get one for myself for a .223 since I don't have a bolt action .223 yet.

You could get it for his bday then thoroughly test it to make sure everything works for 2 yrs then give it to him lolThinking of building a target gun for my brother's 40th bday.

The easy button answer would be:
M-BRACE SCOPE MOUNT

With as attractive a price point as he's offering there are going to have to be limits on options IMO.
Do it! 33 and 37xc dominate the lower weight classes in ELR
I'm interested to know if these will handle the 33 and 37xc as well.
The option to do a Lapua/XC (plus all the smaller rounds) is the main reason I’m getting this action. When I emailed about potentially chambering it in one, they didn’t tell specifically tell me it wouldn’t.. and I’ve read of a few people building them on factory 700s as it is. It might pressure out sooner than other beefier actions though from what I’ve read on similarly threaded actions in these cartridges. Time will tell I suppose!
Oh great, so what barrel manufacture is this joker going to buy and fuck up now?
Keep mine simple.....CDG in the XYLO fully ARC built...the big questions is....do i go 6CM or full retard and 308...I've heard your never supposed to go full retard so I'm leaning more towards the 6CM.
