Most of our shelf is CZ pistols and carbines, but plenty of Kansas buyers also hunt. For them, and for a son or daughter about to take a first deer, we carry the Fierce Firearms Mini Rogue line, a light carbon bolt rifle that sits well beside a Scorpion in the safe.

Fierce built these rifles for youth, women and smaller-framed hunters. A shorter length of pull and an adjustable comb or push-button cheek piece make the rifle fit, and a carbon fiber stock keeps it easy to carry. Kansas hunting suits it well: whitetail along timbered creek bottoms in the east, mule deer and pronghorn on the open short-grass country out west. Pick 6.5 Creedmoor for wind on the plains, or 7mm-08 for brushy draws.

6.5 PRC takes the 6.5 mm bullet faster than the Creedmoor for more reach on elk and mule deer, at the cost of a little more recoil. 6.5 PRC recoils more than the Creedmoors; for a first season most young hunters do better with 6.5 Creedmoor.

Fierce builds the Carbon Mini Rogue on its stainless steel two-lug action. A short 70-degree bolt throw keeps the scope clear, and the Bix'n Andy Dakota trigger can be adjusted to suit the buyer.

This rifle has a 20 in threaded barrel, 4+1 capacity, and weighs about 5.8 lb. Finish: Sonora Ambush Camo.

A teen who has shot a 9mm carbine already knows how stock fit feels. On a bolt rifle with a scope, the same rule applies. Set the length of pull so the trigger finger reaches naturally, then raise the comb until the eye is centered in the scope. A first hunting rifle in 22 or 6.5 Creedmoor builds steady shooting before a step up to 308.
