I just picked up a New GA-Precision Hospitaller and my Spuhr SP-4016 Mount is way too High at 1.5" Height. So I am looking for a Spuhr SP-4001 Mount to replace it and make it the Perfect Height for my application. See Pic below.

Thanks in advance.

This is the email I was dealing with. They never devuldged a name for a contact. However they sent me a shipping slip to send the optic in for evaluation. Took a few emails to describe the issue but had a new scope sent to me. I was surprised and impressed at their level of communication. They have no stock for the DMR and XRS with the eql reticle until sept. Took 3 days for them to reach out but once they did it was prompt correspondence.

I just warrantied a scope used their contact form.. within 8 days had the new XRS in my hands. Actually was impressed... obviously our milage varies in the case of getting in contact.

There's a few threads around here with ppl that have been waiting for months with nothing but crickets. You should certainly post details on who you spoke with, what number/email did they reach out to you from, etc.

Why the fuck and how the fuck are they advertised and marketing new scopes when they can't even answer phones from paying customers for months. There's people who need warranty services that either never find a way to make contact with an actual human at Bushnell or get blown off when someone does answer.

How long were humps on this competition?

The two that I did on the first day were about 5.4 miles each if I remember correctly.

I'm mildly surprised no one has mentioned Federal GMM brass. Unless someone did and I skimmed right over it?

Is it any different from other Federal 223 brass? I've read lots of reports that Federal brass is soft. Haven't loaded enough of it myself to tell a difference.

To answer the OP - I've always had good luck with LC brass.

AW 30Gay 2.0 with a Thick D* barrel at Rifles only in 2020. Changed the skins so the old school ones can stay “minty”

Order a new barrel when you're done with load workup, cuz you're about 500 rounds till that one is finished with n570

I understand that CCI is considered shit around these parts. I have no dog in the fight regarding ammo as I haven't tried every type listed in this thread. Match grade LR ammo has been tough to purchase reliably since I got into this game. Im sure a lot of you guys buy rounds by the case however, Im not the type to sit on a case of ammo that doesnt shoot well with any firearm. I would love to test SLR but struggle to find it in stock. Eley is the only one that I havent tried on your list and plan to make a purchse tonight.

There has to be some middle ground where you dont need sit by a computer waiting for stock to be replenished. Maybe sending the rifle off for lot testting would be better use of money so I can buy 5k rounds of whatever shoots the best but I think the distances of those factory test are limited to 100yds.

I have seen evidence of faster twist rates and longer barrel lenghts normilizing midtire ammo, allowing the user to shoot sub 2MOA reliably out to 300yds in ideal conditions. My rifle has yet to do this with the ammo I have tested and Im not sure it ever will regardless of the ammo selection. I am learning in this proccess and I feel it neccessary to question if 20" barrel lenthg at 1:16tw is optimal as I see multiple front of pack shooters running a different setup.

I know top rimfire smiths are cranking out some quality gear these days but I want to know the WHY they choose X vs Y. This can be taken further with reamer selection but thats a whole different can of worms.

I appreciate everyones feedback and will try each logical suggestion. I have some homework and testing to do. I have already used ammo seek as well as shooting bot to source some Eley. Will update with results when ammo comes in.

The experience of myself and more than a handful of high volume long range Rimfire shooters is that aside from bench rest with wind flags, ammo cost is directly related to consistency. (BR shooters using tuners do some great shooting). You get what you pay for ammo wise. Center-X is hard to find because people are cheap, but dream of some incredible performance at a bargain price. The other untruth that is prevalent online is a small sample size being equated to an incredibly accurate lot (usually inexpensive) of ammo. At 200+, the groups need to be minimum 20 shots, after the bore is fouled. You will see very few of the big online talkers posting their 1 MOA 22LR groups at 200+. Even some familiar names here talk a lot of smack but don’t post targets with more than 5 shot groups out there.

How hard is it to rechamber a RS700 ? Do they use barrel nuts or some kind of proprietary attachment ?

I just purchased the action. No re-chambering required. They have a Remage barrel nut or you can go shouldered.

It's very possible that either the conditions or the examples I had skewed the results.

I have noticed that there is noticeable sample variation in ATACRs. Is it possible I have an exceptional 4-20 ATACR and the ZCO was a dud?

@CSTactical I am aware that the internet loves the 4-20, but that's not what I saw. Can you pull both out and look through them for me? I don't currently own both. Both myself and a friend had the same conclusion when comparing the two 4-20's. FOV and eyebox were the most noticeable differences with the ATACR winning in both of those categories.
Richard, I did adjust the diopter on both, so I don't think that should have been a factor.

Most of the reviews compare the ZCO to other ultra-shorts. I find all of the ultra-short scopes to be lacking. With the ATACR being a non-ultrashort maybe that's why it fares well?

Remember, you don’t have to justify your opinion on scopes you’ve owned, just because you get bombarded with posts on a forum.

Next Shot Precision (NSP) Alpha aluminum forend for Kinetic Research Group (KRG) R700 short action chassis in black. It will fit essentially all KRG Bravo, X-Ray and Whiskey-3 chassis and is a huge upgrade to the standard forends. Its 5.25" longer than a standard forend, its super rigid, has 8 M-LOK slots and one QD cup on either side, full-length textured arca rail and a flared mag well. It will also accept KRG NV bridges, either the standard or longer enclosed forend T-slot internal weights and is a drop-in replacement. Just remove the stock forend and bolt this on with the included screws. Weighs 1.6lb and is 15.25" long in front of the mag well.

$300 shipped. No trades. Some mild wear on the arca rail and some of the M-LOK slots, but is generally in good shape. It’s only been to the range twice. Please PM with any questions or to talk/text/FaceTime. Last pic is the forend on a Whiskey-3 chassis for reference. Forend and mounting bolts are all that are included.
