Join the contestHow is it demanding on the equipment? Serious question as I don’t know about that sport and can see it being demanding on the shooter being slung up but not so much on the equipment. What’s their round counts in a match?
Ahhh, my mistake. I thought it was in reference to demanding in terms of more precision. I will see myself to the door…My reason for the questions were in reference to the comments about 700 triggers whether pins or hangers, in PRS we shoot in the rain, extreme hot or cold and many times in very dusty conditions where dirt/sand is literally blown on and in the open chambers and the rifles will shoot without problems for a 100 shooters and 100 rounds or so in a match. That tells you in real-world applications that the current trigger systems work extremely well. Add the fact that there are roughly 365 matches a year in PRS rimfire alone now add NRL 22 and centerfire and you have a number of rounds combined that I think dominates any shooting sport. All with very low problems. Do triggers fail on occasion, yes, but it is very small for the sheer number of shots taking place.
Thanks for your reply. I was looking for your more knowledgeable input.The 3 way cutter was not being discussed, but might as well... there are additional cutters in the 3 way...but they still can leave a tiny burr, more pronounced when the cutters dull, and the angle or champher is cutting very little on the outside edge or just rubbing if shallow enough angle so less burr is noticed, because less pressure and little to no cutting is occurring at that spot, and one may see or feel a slight burr on one side because of runout, or out of roundness of the of the caliber hole in the case...as nothing is perfect.
Even form tools can leave a burr, with the whole profile being cut at once.
The pressure of the cut can flex the part being formed enough to allow incomplete 100% coverage between the part being formed and the form tool, a small burr will form.
Slightly dull tools or chatter can cause problems.
Here’s a pic of the inside of an Armanov one I have it might flare it somehow but I can’t see anything that would indicate it’s indexing the drop inside the case.That's interesting, since I know the .300BO powder drop definitely goes into the ID of the case mouth (I ordered an Armanov one IIRC, because I didn't want to pay for a complete conversion kit when all I needed was the drop tube and the plastic case feed adapter, since I already had the .223 conversion kit).
It’s not a trend in my case. The B14R comes with 18” and 20” heavy. I bought a 18” years ago. Shoots very well. I now bought a hvy 20” model from battlehawk. The price they sell for is worth the $$ in my opinion. I’ll shoot the two against each other and whichever shoots worst (unless they both hammer) will get a barrel upgrade from Modacam or I’ll pull the trigger on a Rimx or something
I’m buying this chassis with the idea that I’ll have a 24” tube or similar in it eventually.
My 18” factory barrel put 29/30 shots inside 1” at 100 yards the last time out with SKLR. Which is why I rolled the Bergara dice again.
We’ll see how it plays out. I shoot mainly prone so balance won’t be a major issue for me but I do like to train with at least tripod shooting as well.
I don’t think the Matrix Pro II will leave me “wanting” after this. The barrel swap can fix the balance issue. I’d spend half what a Modacam barrel would cost on weights if I kept the factory setup so it’ll have to be a hammer. But I’m willing to work with it if it is
Super sniper?Need a 10x upper limit for the division. 34mm, g2 mildot, adjustable parallax. Going to live on 10x so it's about perfect. Other options would be a mk5 2-10 or zco2-20 but that's like 5-10 times the cost.
