Action Pool Cues – Performance and Style at a Fair Price
Action has been a recognized name in billiards for over 25 years, known for offering a wide range of styles — from classic looks to bold graphics and inlays — at prices most players can afford.
Who they’re best for: Players who want a solid, reliable cue without spending $300–$500+, beginners and intermediate players upgrading from a house cue, and anyone who wants more style options in this price range.
What to expect: Most Action cues use a 29" hard rock maple shaft with a 10–12" pro taper. You’ll typically see either a 13mm 7-layer boar skin tip with fiber linen ferrule (5/16×18 pin), or a one-piece phenolic tip/ferrule with Action’s quick-release pin.
We carry the full range of Action series (Value, Color, Rings, Inlay, Fractal, Sneaky Pete, Break/Jump, and more). Use the filters or series links below to narrow by style.
-----Action Cue Construction & Variety
Action has built its reputation over more than 25 years by offering more design variety than almost any other cue brand — including detailed inlay work and eye-catching decal graphics — without pricing that variety out of reach. Each cue is built for reliable, consistent performance, making Action a trusted choice whether you're picking up a cue for casual play or league competition.
Action Cue Specifications: What to Expect
Most Action cues share the same core shaft construction: a 29" hard rock maple shaft with a 10"–12" pro taper. Where models differ is in the tip, ferrule, and pin setup. Action builds most of its lineup around two main configurations:
Layered Tip Build:
- Tip: 13mm, 7-layer vacuum-sealed proprietary boar skin tip
- Ferrule: 1" fiber linen ferrule
- Shaft: 29" hard rock maple, 10"–12" pro taper
- Pin: 5/16x18
Phenolic Combo Build:
- Tip & Ferrule: 13mm black phenolic tip and ferrule combination (7/8" one-piece)
- Shaft: 29" hard rock maple, 10"–12" pro taper
- Pin: Action Quick Release
Check the specifications listed on each individual cue to confirm which build it uses. Both are built on the same reliable shaft construction, so the choice mostly comes down to your preferred tip feel and joint style.
Choosing the Right Action Cue for Your Game
Action's range spans budget-friendly entry cues up through more detailed inlay designs, so there's a natural step-up path as your game (or your taste in graphics) evolves. Players who want a dependable, affordable cue without a steep learning curve on price tend to start here, while collectors and players who want standout visual style will find some of the widest design variety of any brand we carry.
If you're not sure which series or design fits your budget and style best, we're happy to help you compare.
