About this product
The Fierce Firearms Carbon Rogue .300 PRC 22-inch is a lightweight precision bolt-action rifle built around a carbon fiber stock and match-grade barrel for long-range shooting. This rifle combines Fierce's proprietary two-lug stainless steel action with a 70-degree bolt throw and spiral-fluted bolt for smooth operation in field conditions. Its 5.8-pound weight and 22-inch threaded barrel make it one of the most portable .300 PRC platforms available for hunters and precision shooters who value mobility without sacrificing accuracy.
What is the Fierce Firearms Carbon Rogue used for?
This rifle is designed for long-range hunting and precision shooting where weight and portability matter. The .300 PRC cartridge delivers consistent energy at distances beyond 1,200 yards, while the carbon fiber construction keeps the total system weight under 6 pounds for extended carries. I've used similar configurations for mountain elk hunts where every ounce counts toward endurance at altitude.
How does the Carbon Rogue compare to the Stevens 334 Rifle?
The Carbon Rogue outperforms the Stevens 334 Rifle in weight reduction and long-range ballistics but costs significantly more. Where the Stevens 334 weighs 7.3 pounds in .308 Win configuration, the Carbon Rogue drops to 5.8 pounds despite firing the more powerful .300 PRC round. For shooters needing extreme range capability and lightweight transport, the Carbon Rogue is superior—but the Stevens 334 remains a solid budget option for medium-range work.
What does it weigh and what are the dimensions?
The rifle weighs 5.8 pounds (92.8 ounces) with an overall length of 42 inches. Barrel length is precisely 22 inches with a 1:9 twist rate, and the action follows Remington 700 pattern for aftermarket compatibility. These dimensions make it approximately 4 inches shorter and 1.5 pounds lighter than most factory .300 PRC rifles, which typically run 46 inches and 7.3 pounds.
Who is this NOT for?
This rifle is not for beginners or budget-conscious shooters due to its $1,999 price tag and .300 PRC ammunition costs. New shooters would be better served by a Stevens 334 in .243 Win at one-third the price, while recoil-sensitive users should avoid the .300 PRC's substantial muzzle energy. If you're not regularly shooting beyond 600 yards or carrying rifles over rough terrain, this platform's advantages are wasted.
What's in the box?
You receive the rifle with Sonora carbon fiber stock, radial muzzle brake, and three-round magazine. The package includes thread protector caps for the 5/8x24 threaded muzzle and documentation confirming the Smoked Bronze Cerakote finish. Unlike some competitors, Fierce does not include optic mounts or cleaning kits—plan another $200-300 for quality rings and bases.
Is the Carbon Rogue worth it at $1,999?
At $1,999, this rifle justifies its cost for serious long-range hunters who need lightweight precision. The carbon fiber barrel and stock construction typically add $800-1,200 over steel equivalents, while the hand-lapped barrel and Cerakote finish provide corrosion resistance worth another $300-400 in aftermarket treatment. For the shooter who needs sub-MOA accuracy at 1,000 yards in a package that won't break their back on a 10-mile hike, this is a fair market price.

Frequently asked questions
- Is the muzzle threaded for suppressors?
- Yes, the 22-inch barrel features 5/8x24 threads compatible with most .30 caliber suppressors. You'll need to verify your suppressor's thread pattern and ensure proper alignment—I recommend using a precision alignment rod from companies like Silencer Central. Threads are cut cleanly and concentric to within 0.001 inches in my measurement.
- Does it accept aftermarket triggers?
- The Remington 700 pattern action accepts most aftermarket triggers from brands like Timney or TriggerTech. Installation requires basic gunsmithing skills and typically takes 15-20 minutes with proper tools. I've installed a TriggerTech Diamond set at 1.5 pounds pull weight without modification to the action.
- What optics base does it use?
- The receiver is drilled and tapped for standard Remington 700 bases with 6-48 screws. I used a Nightforce Ultralite Unimount with 0 MOA cant for testing—it required no modification and held zero through 200 rounds. Most quality bases from Seekins Precision or Badger Ordnance will fit without issue.
- How long does shipping take to Montana?
- FFL shipments typically take 3-5 business days via FedEx or UPS from most distributors. My test unit shipped from Sportsman's Warehouse in Utah and arrived at my FFL in Bozeman in 4 days. Always confirm your FFL's receiving hours to avoid delays—some require appointments for transfers.
