Boretech for cleaning, Breakfree CLP for protecting/lubing after.

I'm a Breakfee user as well. Started using their synthetic formula a few years back.

I am gonna put some of yall into apoplexy.
These two loads are from a 20" 308 win at 150 yards today.
#1- 178 ELD, Alpha SRP brass, cci 450 and Varget. Average 2816fps.

The left hand hole is the cold bore (literally) since there is a 22 degree difference from where the rifle/ammo is to the outside where I shoot.


#2- 178 ELD, Alpha srp brass, cci 450 and Power Pro 2000MR. Average 2749fps.


These pieces of brass have 12 firings on them. All over book max. Still running strong. Annealed after every firing.

Yeah I think from asking a few people questions to gauge extact actions weights etc and doing some quick math that its possible with a Carbon Fibre shorty.. but i just dont know if it will be balanced at all well enough.

My other consideration is looking to an ATX/ATXC

Agreed it'd be a real tight needle to thread to get to 16lbs with an AT.

Short CF barrel and a real steam lined optic and mount.

Well I think I want to use Boretech honestly, but would want something else for harder to clean rifles etc

Bump

They are moving forward with it soon.

It will be interesting to see what comes of this but I had a practically new All In One Fix-It Sticks torque driver lock up on me so that it was stuck reading a lower torque but it would just let me keep turning. I caught the issue before any damage was done and contacted them for a replacement. I could easily see a similar situation playing out where that 140 in/lbs driver is locked up so it just keeps letting you turn waiting for that click that will never come and then pop, the aluminum gives way. It might be worth touching base with Fix It Sticks to get their thoughts.

Or the Barrett had a defect in it.

Any updates on the Surefire ICAR anyone has seen?
