Proof Research 22ARC barrel issues

bobke
I had 5 22ARC builds in play and in the break in cycle of about 75-80 rounds per barrel, saw the fall off in accuracy and serious gas port erosion in all 5. To their complete credit, Nick replaced all 5 after their own examination and got them back to me pretty quickly. Happy with Proof customer service and support.
Last I heard from my customer, they’re very happy with accuracy at distance. As they spend a lot of time out in West Texas, haven’t had a chance to scope barrels, but will next opportunity.
Hope Proof does resolve this long term, as other than this issue, very pleased with 6.5GR/CM barrels I have in play personally and with aforementioned customers.

I have three of the Area 419 mount. They are excellent. No issues whatsoever. They make the fasteners in house.

Not doubting you, but having spent many years in the fastener business, this would really surprise me.

There are several companies that make quality fasteners, and who do it much cheaper than they can be made in house. Camcar-Textron and SPS-Unbrako are just a couple off the top of my head.

The Day of the Jackal author Frederick Forsyth dies

Forsyth, who sold 75 million books, is remembered as "one of the world's greatest thriller writers".

Not only arguably the creator of the techno-thriller Genre, but the absolute master of it for almost 60 years.

My first thirller was "The Odessa File" which I read when I was about 12. And have been hooked on books by Forsythe, Higgins, Clancy, Larry Bond and others for my whole life. My night table is always stacked.

From his earliest short stories to The Day of the Jackal and The Dogs of War... to his last epic novel... noone did it like Frederick Forsyth.

RIP, sir. The literary world is a poorer place today.

PS. Michael Crichton could also have claimed the title when it comes to creating the techno-thriller. But Forsythe was the master when it came to the espionage/military side of it.

Just a purely theoretical question, but if the community response to their initial reticle offerings was not as positive as they might have hoped, what would be the chance they could modify same before initial delivery to market-the thought that a minor delay for better market acceptance better than revision post first release.
