Ironically, ELDMs lol I tried SSTs too. Whatever difference they would show was completely lost in the wash.

Damn.

For what it’s worth, after coming across this thread, I began looking for and missed out on a couple foundation stocks inletted for both Rimx and impact 737 in the market place. being too impatient to wait for a new foundation build, I decided to buy an in-stock Impact 737r foundation MG2 from bullet central during the Easter sale and make my RimX fit. Turns out it was pretty simple.

First off the RimX dropped right in the inletting, the only interference was the rear swept bolt handle, which I expected.

I used a steady hand and a Dremel with a carbide cutting bit to slowly open up the notch for the bolt.

I slowly worked on the rear edge of the notch, frequently checking the clearance with the bolt knob. This is the result.

After it was fitted i used some 600grit sandpaper to smooth it out just a tad. Then used the ghetto method of a few rounds of applying black sharpie immediately followed by smearing it while it was still wet. I think it turned out great, matching the dark distressed color and took lest than 30min to do the whole job.

Yes. Exactly. The spigot on the matrix pro is ripe to extend forward with a weight. A number of folks have built custom versions.

The nose weight for the acc premier gen2 needs to be made in multiple weights increasing by 4 oz at a time.

Both so much better than external weights as they extend further forward and have a longer moment arm.

Someone solves either of those I am in line to buy both.

I get that. But if your barrel life is 1000 rounds and you factor in break in time, and load development, a lot of guys steer clear of improved cases. You essentially have to do load development twice. I personally would prefer the improved version, but to each their own.

Start off with 2 barrels, both use the same chamber, same length. On first barrel use 100 cases, fireform and load development. Learn the nuances of the cartridge when the first barrel is toast fireform brass for the next barrel. You could even go 7/300NMIMP and just neck that brass to 7MM.

Figured to give an update.

Took him to the local gun store tonight. Ended up walking out of the store with a camo S&W 15-22. He tried the cz scout, 10/22’s galore, TacSol Owahee, etc….

He picked up the 15-22, he could hold it no problem and the ergos won him over.

Needs a new trigger and the grip sucks but I can take care of that. Have a spare buttstock as well.

Hoping it shoots half decent and is reliable.

He’s shot my AR-15 22lr build but it’s not as light as this smith and Wesson 15-22.

A little early but we wanted to get what fit him and what he liked.

You are a bit more easygoing than I am. If this happened to my ammo that I was paying $20 a box for I'd be on the phone demanding a whole new batch from Eley. If I'm paying that much I expect it to be as perfect as it can get and hassle free.

The Huxwrx Ventum that I ordered from the new owners of my LGS has been an exercise in frustration.
After three months they finally got it in.

She emailed me copies of the paperwork tonight (7 pages) saying

Submitted/in process

so hope the approval process goes quickly.

Kind of anxious to see how it performs on the AR's as compared to the Nomad I have been using.

I don't know why GreyOps won't just make a heavy spigot weight. Instead they sell 4 pack weights internally and people only want the front 1 or 2, and they won't sell them separately...

Isn’t it sad that the actual chassis shops can’t just solve this? MPA, MDT, how hard can it be?

I don’t want to even hear about all the variables. Almost every Rimfire needs weight added, is it because they won’t sell overpriced weights? Seriously, at the very least Foundation is trying with the Sampson.

You’d think that one of the big shops would’ve made something…
My approach is very modular. Want more cantilever, slide the weight out. Want less, slide the weight in. Was going to add m-lok, but realized it didn’t need it.
I actually removed 3 bridges after adding the tuner back in.

Definitely Satan’s mouth piece and tool.

If I live to be that old I want to be doing anything other than still working; what’s wrong with these fools? I already know the answer…….

I do anneal before sizing yes. I don't feel it's over done. But maybe. How would that cause the mouths to have that lip on them?

Thanks, I looked at a couple of benches today and can see I’ll need to take the mounting plate and make sure it’ll fit. A couple I looked at had the brace, one was metal, recessed about an inch or less from the front edge which might be an issue also. Definitely think a minimum of an inch is a necessity now. I’ve seen a couple of butcher blocks for sale so might look more in to that option also. Appreciate the info.

I have a 6’ Gladiator work bench with 1.75” thick wood top. Very stable. I have a Zero and a Prazi mounted on it. No movement

I'm loosing my mind. Cleaned up my brass that I caused the mouths to become wicked/peend using my giraud. Also switched to walnut vibratory cleaning. Lot less cleanup I will say.

But....

I noticed several cases have it again. I've already trimmed these cases below spec to clean them up. What now? I have no idea how this is occurring.

Consider not cleaning them. Just resize, make sure they’re good, load and shoot

I can only speak to the volume, not the quantity, so you're still looking at a good handful of peanut M&M's in the grip.
