Devildog Hog 6.5 Creedmoor feed problem. Ideas?

That thing you circled is the ejector. The extractor, which grabs the case rim, is the square bit on the left. The ejector is supposed to flop around, until the bolt reaches full rearward travel, at which point a finger hits the back side of it, ejecting the case out of the gun. When a case is seated in the bolt face, the ejector should be flush or below flush with the bolt face(push it down with a punch to check this). The extractor should slide radially outward in its slot and spring back towards the center of the bolt face.

You appear to have an issue with the cartridge interfering with the chamber(chamber too small, cartridge too big, or debris in the chamber ). This could be any number of dimensions on either part. The fact that the case is sticking indicates either the bullet is jamming in the lands, or the diameter of the case above the extractor groove is too big. Take a clean new round and insert it into the chamber by hand and try and close the bolt. Now carefully remove the cartridge and look for scrapes anywhere along its shape, thats where your interference is.

300 yard consistency

RimX barreled by Crossroads Precision Rifles out of victoria TX. Muller 13T, 25". Ammo is Eley Match, 1123fps, SD 5.6fps. March Genesis 6X60 scope.

Good to see higher velocity working. Mine is very similar. Shoots almost all Tenex at 1120, regardless of what the lot says.

CHINA IS F###ED

An American I know who travels there for 2 yr stints to teach English to rich kids is now hoping his host family can finagle a way of sneaking into Taiwan so they can flee. The family owns a bunch of factories in China and fears they too will burnt down soon. But escaping is difficult now due to EXIT BANS by the CCCP who has greatly cracked down on the Chinese people in recent years...even jailing people for writing songs with lyrics the government dislikes. I can't imagine having to abandon my businesses and flee the country under risk of being imprisoned like this. Yeesh!
How do you get a factory in communist China....🤔🤔🤔

Anyone Shooting a 40x?

While it's true that Mike Bush designed the repeater conversion for the 40X/XB and the V22 repeater action, to the best of my knowledge, Vudoo Gun Works never offered a repeater conversion for the Remington actions. Mike put the CAD/CAM drawings out there for the conversion to several gunsmiths, but - again, to the best of my knowledge - Jonathan Elrod was pretty much the one guy who specialized in doing the conversions while Mike & VGW were working to bring the V22 action to market. I've always thought that one of the main reasons Mike designed the conversion was to get as many of his V22 magazines out there & into the hands of a good number of shooters to 'proof' them and provide him with a lot of feedback whilst he was working on the V22 action. And no doubt, when guys got their relatively inexpensive CMP 40X/XB actions converted and were able to reap the advantages of having a .22RF repeater that was nearly identical in weight & proportions to their M700 CF rifles, it was a game changer, whether they wanted an accurate RF trainer for their CF comp rifles, or for all the .22RF competition games like NRL22 & 22RF PRS that were just becoming popular. I've always thought that his marketing strategy was genius - making the repeater conversion available to take advantage of the thousands of CMP 40X/XB rifles out there, and at the same time, creating enough demand for the V22 action so that when they were released, the demand was already there.
This^^^^, is all true. Except for the genius part....that's far from true.

Sort of sounds like fleeing Germany in 1935…. Remember that they are the Chinese communist party. But in reality, they are now a fascist government. The reason being that they were communist as long as the government owned all the means of production. As soon as they privatized all the factories and said getting rich is glorious, they switched from a communist government to a fascist government. It’s a small point, but they are exactly like Nazi Germany at this point.

Cheers.

Suppressors Mount or direct thread?

Can confirm the Wolfpack Armory recessed DT adapter is nice, I run it with an OCL Hydro K on my 6.5x55 hunting rifle. Wasn't that arsed with weight but having a HUB mount that reduced OAL rather than making the can longer is good.
This is what I'm really interested in. As mentioned above, DT on a 5.56 suppressor makes for a universal setup and as small and light as possible.

I have an 11.5 rig that I put together as a dedicated host. The only can I had to test it is a Polonium. As it is setup, it won't run reliably without the can, so the can I have coming is intended to live on its host. I have a YHM Fat Cat coming.

Big wild card is whether they will start an invasion of Taiwan as a distraction or because they have nothing else to lose…

Or turn loose their thousands upon thousands of assassins and saboteurs already embedded throughout our country.

This is honestly my biggest fear/concern right now.
