Defiance has traded hands again as of last year.

They are now owned by Glen Beck of the long range outfitting and firearms business. he also owns McMillan.

Nesika became part of the Remington group and Custom shop before Remington folded. Why Sturgis? Because Remington had bought Dakota from Don Allens wife after he died, so Remington moved their own custom shop to Sturgis.

When they acquired Nsika from Glenn, they put it in Strugis with Dakota/Rem Custom shop.

Defiance as ran by Glenn was an absolute shit-show. It was a passion project, and they were good at making a great rifle action, but they were something $5,000,000 under water and had millions of dollars of actions on back order. They just kept giving away free inventory at PRS and other long range shooting competitions.

For benchrest shooting a right handed shooter often prefers to operate the bolt and loading with left hand, keeping the right hand in position on the grip and trigger guard so as to not disturb the rifle position. So the "left hand" action is actually designed for right handed shooters.

 

[Muskox]

Not quite, in Benchrest you want a Left Port Right Hand action.

Is that a Remington 700 footprint or custom inlet?

Is that a Remington 700 footprint or custom inlet?

Truthfully, I am not sure. I always ordered McMillian stocks for my Nesika actions. I do not know if there is a difference or not--never ask. Thanks for your interest.
