Borden Timberline

The History of Borden Accuracy

Borden Accuracy was established by Jim Borden, who initially began as a silhouette and benchrest competitor in the mid-1970s, while also maintaining a role as an engineer for a Fortune 500 company. His interest in firearms expanded into the creation of his rifles, which then grew into a business of producing custom firearms for others in the early 1980s. Following his retirement from his previous engineering career in December 1994, Borden fully transitioned into the custom gun-building field.

Borden's dedication and skill have led to significant recognition. He set ten world records in the field, won 11 National Championships, and earned the Gold Precision Rifleman Award from the International Benchrest Shooters. In addition, he was an active participant in the leadership of the International Benchrest Shooters, serving multiple terms on the Executive Board.

Today, Borden Accuracy is a family-run operation. They operate primarily in the manufacturing of precision actions of the highest quality with the extremely low tolerances using CNC machinery. Their operational facilities are in the Springville, USA and are distributed across two buildings, comprising more than 6000 square feet dedicated to manufacturing and showroom areas. For practical rifle accuracy assessment, a 100-yard range with two covered solid concrete benches is maintained within the company premises. In addition to the high-precision actions, Borden Accuracy also includes custom rifle production in their operations. The product range consists of different categories – from hunting rifles, F-class rifles, and BR rifles to tube gun rifles. Each type allows for extensive modifications, enabling users to adjust specific elements according to the user’s preferences.

The brand is recognized for its extreme accuracy and reliability in both hunting and competitive fields. Their collective efforts have resulted in the manufacture of actions and the assembly of rifles that have won over 100 World Records and National Championships.

Borden Accuracy Timberline Rifle Review

The Borden Timberline is a name reserved for custom bolt-action rifles characterized by the long style (LA) actions with titanium body that are manufactured by Borden Accuracy. Unique to Borden's portfolio, the Timberline is designed to accommodate a range of magazine styles, from Single shot, Remington STD Magnum, and Remington Ultra Magnum, to Wyatt STD Magnum, and Wyatt Ultra Magnum. The action is 221 mm long and 34 mm in diameter, with weight variants of 595 g, 822 g, and 953 g.

On the front end of the bolt, there are two strong opposing locking lugs that lock up safely with the action’s housing. The Timberline is chambered for a variety of long action calibers and is available for both right and left-handed users. It features a two-position safety lever located on the upper right side of the receiver. On the opposite, right side, the bolt release lever is found.

For attachment purposes, the model is designed with four holes in the receiver, evenly distributed at the front and the back. The Borden Timberline is a highly customizable model allowing for a large choice of components such as the magazine style, weight, and the design of the action. This means that the overall specifications may vary from rifle to rifle.

Borden Accuracy Timberline Calibers

Since the rifle is highly customizable, the caliber choice is left to the user. No concrete list of available calibers is provided, however, the manufacturer states that the Timberline can accommodate a wide variety of LA cartridges in the .30-06 Spr. family.

The receivers of Borden Accuracy Timberline come with drilled and tapped holes for scope mounting purposes. There are two holes at the front and two at the rear end of the receiver.

Scope Mounts Interchangeable With Borden Accuracy Timberline

Rifles That Have One-Piece Scope Mounts Interchangeable With Borden Accuracy Timberline

For one-piece mounts to fit on a rifle, mounting surfaces on these rifles must match in every dimension.

Rifles That Have Two-Piece Scope Mounts Interchangeable With Borden Accuracy Timberline

To meet interchangeability conditions, two-piece mounts must match in all dimensions except the B distance. B distance can vary because two-piece mounts can be installed and adjusted closer or further apart.

Unfortunately, we were unable to find any rifles that would share the mounting dimensions with Borden Accuracy Timberline, thus we currently cannot provide you with the list of interchangeable scope mounts. Should you happen to own the rifle that uses Timberline action and would be willing to share with us more information regarding scope mounts interchangeability, please contact us at [email protected]

Your help is greatly appreciated.
