Your thoughts on this aftermarket action.

[PatMiles]

Full disclosure, I am in no way associated with Stiller.

Stiller is closing out these actions. Found this sale while looking for an action to put a rifle together on.

I have 2 rigs with Stillers and I have zero complaints. I also run rigs with Impact Precision, Defiance, Bat and GA Tempest II and Stillers perform just as good. That’s just my 2 cents based on all my experience.

 

[Dusty Stevens]

Not sure why there are stiller haters, ive had a bunch and still have some. Great actions and great guys.

 

[DngBat7]

Can this action be used for short range benchrest in 30br?

 

[PatMiles]

Helluva price also!

 

[PatMiles]

Can this action be used for short range benchrest in 6ppc or 30br?

Give Stiller a call with your questions.
It's a 308 bolt face and a short action.

Things aren't the same since Jerry left. Just my two centavos! I've always been a Stiller fan. You can't beat the price on this!

 

[shoot4fun]

I had one of the P1000 actions. It was RBLPRE and worked very well. That is a great price!

I had a tac30 that would bind and stiller never returned my calls or answered my emails for help. This was In 2019.

I had a stiller predator in 300WSM that was built by LSR in 2010. I loved that gun. Sold it because I’m a moron.

Yep, same experience I had this past year with a Tac 30. All the Stillers I had in the past were butter smooth.

Over the years I’ve owned 8 Stiller
Actions. Never had a problem.
I’d buy another today, if I were in the market for a good Action.

Hmmm. At that price, I might take a chance on one. Thanks for the heads up!

Yeah, I ordered up two, just couldn't hep it.

The only potential issue that I see with that action is the 1.550 diameter as opposed to the 1.350 of the Remington footprint actions. Getting a stock that is wide enough to work without thinning out the sides too much may be a challenge depending on your intended use of the action.

Just chuck it in the lathe and turn it down. Once that's done you can put it in the mill to cut the missing mag well

Dunno - their site says they're available in 1.35 diameter as well.

 

[STS]

The 1.350 action isn't on sale, it's still $1095.

 

[boltfluter]

Great price if you want to build a boomer!!

[Liven The Dream]

The Price is right ?
I would have jumped 3 months ago ?
ordered a Single Shot 700 from SS Blue Printed from PT&G .
Happy with it .

If it was the long action, I would be very tempted.

I don't see much point in a 1.55" short action receiver unless you are trying to make a 40lb Dasher or something.
