Fierce Firearms CT Edge

Also known as: Fierce CT Edge, CT Edge
Overview
The Fierce Firearms CT Edge is an ultralight precision hunting rifle that combines a titanium action with a carbon-fiber-wrapped stainless steel barrel to achieve a remarkably low weight of 5.9 pounds -- though real-world tested weights have come in closer to 7 pounds depending on configuration. The CT in the name stands for Carbon Titanium, reflecting the two materials that define this rifle's construction philosophy of using aerospace-grade materials to minimize weight without compromising strength or accuracy. The titanium action paired with a mini claw extractor provides controlled round feed reliability, while the spiral-fluted bolt reduces weight and adds a premium aesthetic. The carbon fiber Monte Carlo stock completes the lightweight package with a black and gray pattern. Every CT Edge ships with a test target demonstrating 0.5-inch or better 3-shot groups at 100 yards, backing Fierce Firearms' sub-half-MOA accuracy guarantee. Available in barrel lengths of 23, 24, or 26 inches, the CT Edge is chambered in a wide range of calibers from 6.5 Creedmoor to .300 PRC, making it a versatile platform for mountain hunters and backcountry enthusiasts who need to carry their rifle over long distances before making a precise shot.

Notes
Fierce Firearms is headquartered in Redmond, Utah and was founded in 2013. The CT Edge uses a titanium action while the Carbon Edge variant uses a steel action at a lower price point. The CT Rage variant features shorter barrels for even more compact dimensions. Actual field-tested weights may exceed the advertised 5.9 pounds depending on specific caliber and barrel length configuration. The speed detachable box magazine system allows quick magazine changes in the field.
Background
The Fierce Firearms CT Edge represents the leading edge of the ultralight precision rifle trend, where aerospace materials like titanium and carbon fiber are applied to bolt-action rifles to create hunting tools that weigh less than six pounds yet maintain sub-half-MOA accuracy -- a combination that seemed impossible just a decade ago.
