Fierce Firearms CT Rage LR .22 Creedmoor 20-inch Bolt Rifle
About this product
What is the Fierce Firearms CT Rage LR .22 Creedmoor 20-inch Bolt Rifle? The CT Rage LR is a titanium-action precision rifle chambered in .22 Creedmoor built for consistent sub-MOA performance at 1,200+ yards using a 20-inch carbon fiber barrel that weighs just 6.10 lbs. This isn't entry-level gear—this is what you move up to when you've exhausted the capabilities of factory-made rifles like the Stevens 334 in .308 Win, and you're ready to invest in a tool that bridges the gap between competition precision and practical long-range field use without NFA paperwork or custom gunsmithing.
What is the Fierce Firearms CT Rage LR used for?
The CT Rage LR is built for precision long-range shooting, primarily targeting varmints, predators, and competitive shooters who need consistent sub-MOA accuracy out to 1,200 yards. Its .22 Creedmoor chambering delivers flat trajectories with minimal wind drift compared to .223 Remington, while the 20-inch carbon-wrapped barrel maintains rigidity without adding weight—critical when you're carrying this 6.10 lb rifle across uneven terrain or shooting from improvised positions. The TriggerTech adjustable trigger breaks cleanly at 2.5 lbs, giving you the control needed for precise shot placement even under time pressure.
How does the Fierce Firearms CT Rage LR compare to the Stevens 334 in .308 Win?
The CT Rage LR outperforms the Stevens 334 in .308 Win in both ballistic efficiency and precision engineering, trading brute force for surgical accuracy. Where the Stevens 334 delivers 2-3 MOA groups with its 20-inch barrel and basic synthetic stock, the CT Rage LR consistently produces sub-MOA groups thanks to its match-grade carbon fiber barrel, titanium action, and fully adjustable Rage LR stock—but it costs $2,500 more. For hunters who need knock-down power on large game, the .308 Win the Stevens 334 remains the better choice; for precision shooters chasing tiny groups at extreme distances, the .22 Creedmoor cartridge and custom-grade components make the CT Rage LR the clear winner.
What does it weigh and what are the dimensions?
The CT Rage LR weighs 6.10 lbs with an overall length of 40.5 inches and a 20-inch barrel measuring 0.920 inches in diameter at the muzzle. That weight is 1.8 lbs lighter than a comparable steel-barreled precision rifle like the Bergara B-14 HMR, achieved through the titanium action and carbon fiber barrel wrap—critical for reducing shooter fatigue during extended range sessions or backcountry carries. The stock's adjustable comb adds 0.75 inches of height variance, accommodating everything from low-mounted red dots to high-power scopes with 56mm objective lenses.
Who is this NOT for?
This rifle isn't for beginners or budget-conscious shooters—it's a specialist tool requiring hand-loaded ammunition and optic investments starting at $1,000+ to realize its potential. If you're still mastering fundamentals or primarily hunt deer-sized game inside 300 yards, you'll find better value in a Stevens 334 in .243 Win — our editorial take costing one-third the price. The .22 Creedmoor cartridge also demands hand-loading for optimal performance, adding time and expense that casual shooters won't appreciate.
What's in the box?
You get the rifle with one 4-round detachable magazine, a thread protector for the 5/8x24 threaded muzzle, and a factory test target showing a 0.65 MOA 3-shot group at 100 yards—no soft case, cleaning kit, or optic mounts included. The manual covers disassembly and trigger adjustment but assumes you already understand precision rifle maintenance; first-time buyers should budget another $150 for a quality bore guide and cleaning rod kit.
Is the Fierce Firearms CT Rage LR worth it at $3,750?
At $3,750, the CT Rage LR justifies its cost for serious long-range competitors and varmint hunters who need titanium-action reliability and carbon barrel performance without custom build wait times. You're paying for the Titanium Triad action's 3-lug design that cycles smoother than Remington 700 actions, the carbon wrap that reduces barrel whip by 40% compared to steel barrels, and the adjustable stock that eliminates $300-$500 in aftermarket upgrades—but only if you'll actually shoot beyond 600 yards regularly. If you don't hand-load or shoot competitively, this rifle's capabilities will be wasted.

Frequently asked questions
- Is it compatible with standard AR-10 magazines?
- No, it uses proprietary Fierce Firearms drop-box magazines—the included magazine holds 4 rounds, and extras cost $85 each from the manufacturer. Standard AR-10 or AICS pattern magazines won't seat properly due to the titanium action's unique footprint.
- Does it fit in a standard rifle case?
- Yes, its 40.5-inch overall length fits most 42-inch tactical cases, but the adjustable comb adds 1.5 inches of height—measure your case's interior clearance before purchasing. Pelican 1750 cases accommodate it with room for a suppressor.
- How long does shipping take?
- Expect 7-10 business days for processing and ground shipping, plus 3-5 additional days for FFL verification if required in your state. Express options cut this to 3 days but add $75-$100—check local laws before ordering.
- Can I return it if it doesn't group well?
- No, all firearm sales are final once transferred through an FFL, but Fierce Firearms offers a 0.5 MOA accuracy guarantee—if it doesn't shoot sub-MOA with match ammo, they'll repair or replace it within 30 days.
