Deer season in Arkansas can mean a climbing stand in the Delta river bottoms one weekend and a long hike up an Ozark hollow the next. Smaller hunters and kids feel every extra pound on those walks, so Fierce Firearms built the Mini Rogue rifles light, short and adjustable.

Each rifle in the family uses a carbon fiber stock with a shorter length of pull and a comb or cheek piece that moves to fit the shooter. It is made for youth, women and smaller-framed hunters who want a real hunting rifle, not a cut-down toy. Stainless or titanium dual-lug actions and adjustable triggers give clean, repeatable shots. For whitetail in the timber, 6.5 Creedmoor and 7mm-08 are easy-shooting choices, and 308 is there for a hunter ready to step up toward bear in the big timber.

The Mini Rogue 2 pairs Fierce's dual-lug action with a TriggerTech trigger, a drop box magazine and a C3 carbon fiber barrel. The forend carries an Arca-Swiss mount and an integral bipod rail.

6mm Creedmoor is known for flat trajectories and low recoil, a combination that suits varmints, predators and deer at sensible ranges.

This rifle has a 20 in barrel. Finish: Smoked Bronze / Sonora.

A kid in a box blind over a bean field needs to get the rifle up quietly and look straight through the glass. That only happens when the length of pull matches arm length and the comb holds the eye in line with the scope. Adjust both before the season, at the bench. Keep the first rifle mild, like 6.5 Creedmoor, and save 308 for later.

Arkansas has no permit to purchase and no waiting period. Your rifle ships to the Arkansas dealer you choose, from Conway and Little Rock to Batesville or Stuttgart. The dealer runs the background check at pickup and you leave with the gun. Ammo, steel shot and gear ship to your door. Price and stock are confirmed live before you pay.

Questions buyers ask: What Mini Rogue caliber is good for Arkansas whitetail? 6.5 Creedmoor and 7mm-08 Remington both take deer cleanly at woods and field ranges with modest recoil. They are good first choices for a young or smaller hunter. How do I get a Fierce rifle in Arkansas? Pick any Arkansas FFL dealer at checkout and the rifle ships there. There is no permit or waiting period, so you leave after the background check. What caliber is this Fierce rifle? 6mm Creedmoor.
