Actually we just got some Form 2's back, so they apparently didn't wait until Monday.

All form processing has been stopped during the shutdown. ATF is supposed to restart processing forms on Monday.

Older thread, but, thought i'd mention that I just got off the phone with Ian Kelbly to order a Black Bear action (long action, right bolt, right port, .532 boltface but went ahead and ordered a .473 bolt as well - planning on just shooting 30-06 Improved for now.... which has ended up my fave long range caliber .... I dont compete, i just shoot for fun, I like the extra "pop" over 308, but still having better barrel life than the magnum calibers.... and i've got almost 600 pieces of brand new lapua brass in 06, and a manson chambering reamer, and 06 improved dies, etc etc)

Ive had a lot of guns over the years, some decently nice ones, some with a fair amount of work done to them, but I decided to go full custom this time. This thread, and threads like it, are part of why i went that way. I appreciate companies getting online and talking about stuff too.

Have a couple barrel blanks here that i'll need to get threaded / chambered (both med/heavy palma contours, finish to 30"), need to shop around for those services soon. One krieger 5R, one Bartlein 400BB 5R

Anyways, its too bad the black bear actions weren't more popular, i love the sound of them. A flat bottom / stiff action sounds good to me (main target rifles before this a sleeved rem 700 and a post 64 model 70, and a TRG42).

For stock, i may just build up something in wood. I need about a 12.5" LOP, and i like a fully adjustable stock (cheekpiece, 3 way ass, etc). Will see. Not sure if I want to go chassis right now. fave rifle is sleeved 700 in a converted Anschutz stock, single shot, 5018 trigger, short stock thats fully adjustable. Thats my "happy place" for stocks. (I might want to take that stock and convert it to this action, but..... if I do, i'll never restock the old one, so.... right now trying to think of, find, something similar. Short LOP, small pistol grip area / short reach to trigger.... that all makes me happy)

i love the sound of these. A flat bottom / stiff action sounds good to me (main target rifles before this a sleeved rem 700 and a post 64 model 70, and a TRG42, with a number of others left unmentioned...). Esp getting into calibers with more recoil / torque than a .308, and running 30" barrels

So, too bad these actions weren't more popular, but am definitely excited to get mine

The print we have says 0.825 +/-1, where is the 822 number published? The 825 number has been standard since 2018 timeframe with the Nucleus launch and several shops, myself included, argued with Ted to make the 825 number standard and keep it for the Coups. We've never run into an issue with the Coup on headspace using 825.

Or does someone else have an old print or an incorrect reference entirely? Instead, using 825 all the numbers match up there.

I did see some early Nukes that were 822/823 range and that caused some very early, very rare issues being that we were cutting the barrels at the time to 823+/- 5 tenths since the number ARC gave me was 825 +/-1, however I haven't seen anything like that since 2018 Gen 1 Nukes.

I googled "ARC tennon Specs" and the first relative link that popped up showed the below image. If you go to their website, Support page links to the same CDG pdf with 0.822. One link below is their other actions which says "not for CDG" and indicates a 0.825".

I submitted a Form 1 two days prior to the shutdown - USPS showed delivery of the paperwork the day of the shutdown - and - haven't heard anything since. My Form 1's are usually approved within a couple of days.
So, waiting..............

I have the 1st gen of this scope , my only negative is its a 1st focal plane scope ,which is fine for punching paper but on low power the cross hair is so thin it's hard to pick up , for a hunting scope that kinda sucks for me , great glass though and I like that there's a off position between each illumination brightness click , IIRC the complaints on the gen one was the turrents were kinda mushy , I haven't noticed that on mine .

I had a G1 and the G3 blows it away and in almost everything. I have $4000 scopes and the turrets in my G3 are at least as good as they are and as far as distinctness even better. The IQ is great for the price but not up to those expensive scopes. The .06 Mil reticle thickness can actually bee seen on lower mag compared to the older one. Like 4x in the G3 compared to 5.5x on the G1 it's looking around the same but a wider FOV on the G3 4x.

This is one of those scopes that I wish I had need for more of them but alas I don't. If it had daylight bright illume I'd flat out sell a portion of my scopes to replace them with it. 2.5x and 15x are sweet spots for low and high in a FFP scope. Can do just about anything here.

Gay black dude leaves Navy. This is not blow to Hegsmith, it's what he wanted. Lol

Cool build.

You may want to get out a caliper and measure your group to confirm. I think your software is off, but still some solid shooting

Document control is always fun!

Don't even get me started on document control and revision control... Was just dealing with that last week actually, the customer emailed one of the program team that was on vacation a redline that didn't make it to document control, and now I have 5 parts in inspection that weren't made to the current rev that need rework, lol

Always fun when you have drawings that are into the double digits of revisions (better yet, double letter revisions which means at least 26 drawing revisions) and you need to keep manufacturing, inspection, vendors, and the customer all working to the current rev... Especially if while you're making parts to the current rev you also need to make spares for decades old aircraft that may require you dig out an old rev and make a specific down rev version of the part for that specific aircraft. So many opportunities to screw up!

Yeah, no shit. That part sucks
